NEW YORK
A Turkish presidential press advisor denies Egyptian media reports that the Turkish president and Egyptian leader to meet in New York on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly meeting.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's position toward the "coup-maker" Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi is clear, Lutfullah Goktas told The Anadolu Agency.
"The reports regarding the meeting of Erdogan and Al-Sisi are absolutely not true. We had not any request or demand from the Egyptian delegations in New York to have a meeting," he said. "We don't have any kind of plan in that respect."
Egyptian media outlets claimed that a Turkish delegation under Erdogan would meet an Egyptian delegation under al-Sisi in New York.
