Russia would like to bring together Turkey, Syria and Iran in some kind of a historic meeting. This could be a step towards normalization between Syria and Turkey. Turkey and Russia have been working on energy talks and Turkey has acquired the S-400 from Russia, but for Russia, a shift in Turkey’s policies in Syria would be a major game changer. Turkey is a member of NATO but has worked to block Sweden and Finland from joining NATO, which potentially helps Russia.

"The timeframe for a meeting of the foreign ministers of Russia, Syria and Turkey has not been negotiated yet, but consultations on this issue continue," Mikhail Bogdanov, Russian deputy foreign minister and Special Presidential Representative for the Middle East and Africa, said, as per Russia’s state media TASS.

It would be even more noteworthy if they invited nations like Libya and Sudan/Ethiopia, and/or the other nations that make up the outer fringe of the Gog/Magog campaign.
