"We're working on it. We haven't decided yet on it's size. We're working with Russia, with the US, and with Astana partners. Our technical teams met several times. We appreciate that Russia understands Turkey's security concerns, as partner and ally. So we are working on it," the minister said.

According to the minister, Turkey will control the future safe zone, but Ankara will continue to work with the Russian military on the issue.
