Despite some complicated issues in the trilateral relations, the delegations from Russia, Iran, and Turkey showed a common understanding of the Syrian problems during the two-day negotiations in the Kazakh capital of Astana, Alexander Lavrentiev told the Russian-language RIA Novosti.

The talks in Kazakhstan focused on establishment of a sustainable ceasefire and setting a framework for measures to resolve the Syrian crisis, the diplomat noted.

The international meeting began on January 23 with the participation of a number of delegations, including armed opposition, Damascus, Russia, Iran and Turkey.

Iran, Russia and Turkey issued a joint statement at the end of the peace talks on Tuesday, reiterating that there is no military solution to the Syrian war and that only a political process can resolve the crisis.

The states also reaffirmed their commitment to the independence and territorial integrity of Syria.
