YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 27, ARMENPRESS. Turkey risks to face a complicated situation in the region, the country’s leaders have crossed the line of acceptable, Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said at the beginning of talks with the Syrian counterpart Walid Muallem on Friday, as “Armenpress” reports, citing TASS.

Lavrov thanked Damascus sincerely for the rescue of the Russian pilot.

"I do not think we now have reasons to discuss our perception of the Turkish provocation against our jet," the minister said. "Our perception has been presented in most details, first of all by Russia’s President Vladimir Putin."

"We believe the Turkish leaders have crossed the line of the acceptable," Lavrov said. "They risk bringing Turkey into a most complicated situation — both from the point of view of long-term national interests and from the point of view of the situation in the region."
