ISTANBUL — President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Sunday said he might invite his Syrian counterpart Bashar Assad to Turkey "at any moment", in a sign of reconciliation after the 2011 war broke ties between Ankara and Damascus.

"We may send an invitation [to Assad] at any moment," Erdogan was quoted as telling journalists of the official Anadolu news agency aboard a plane from Berlin where he watched Euro 2024.
