The 'masks' are off - Rouhani in Turkey in January, Erdogan in Iran Later.(Fars).
Iran's President Hassan Rouhani is slated to pay an official visit to Turkey in January, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davotoglu announced on Wednesday, adding that his Prime Minister plans to reciprocate Rouhani's visit at a later date.
In a joint press conference with his Iranian counterpart Mohammad Javad Zarif, Davotoglu said President Rouhani would visit Ankara in January, but did not mention any specific date for the trip.
He further added that Recep Tayyip Erdogan will also travel to Tehran after the Iranian president's trip to Ankara.
Both Iran and Turkey have broadened their relations in various fields of economy, security, trade, education, energy and culture in the recent years.
The two sides have exchanged several politico-economic delegations during the last few months.
Turkey imports more than 90 percent of its oil and gas.
Iran and Turkey are determined to boost their trade exchanges to $35bln in the near future.Hmmm.....I've posted many, many times about how Turkey was supporting Iran thanks to the wavers given by the Obama admin.

As expected Obama will give BFF Turkey a waiver from sanctions, they 'only' import 45 percent of their oil from Iran and aid Iran avoiding sanctions.
