Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan met his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump Saturday on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Hamburg, Germany.

The two leaders held a nearly half hour meeting before the closing session of the G20 summit, Turkish officials have said without giving more details.

Erdoğan also had a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday morning; the two leaders discussed the conflict in Syria and other regional issues.

The two-day summit of world's 20 major economies (G20) will end later on Saturday. President Erdoğan is expected to hold a news conference at the end of the summit.

The summit hosted by Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel had focused on global economy, climate change and the fight against terrorism.
