On Putin’s alleged visit to Ankara, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov was also put forward, saying, “there is no time before the elections. The schedule is still quite tight for the president and Mr. Erdogan is also busy.”
It is noted that the presidential elections in Russia are scheduled for March 15-17. If there is no winner (at least half of the votes are required), a second round will be held on April 7th.
