Turkish Interior Minister Besir Atalay is slated to visit Tehran within the next few weeks to confer with Iranian officials on increasing cooperation between the two countries in their fight against terrorism. Atalay told reporters after a meeting with his Syrian counterpart in the port city of Latakia that neighboring countries could always undertake joint security operations, adding that Turkey and Syria not only cooperated against terrorism but also against illicit drug and human trafficking. "There might be joint operations in several fields. Syria has recently staged sensitive operations. They were not joint operations but we were informed about them. There might be mutual requests on security issues," Atalay said. Iran and Turkey have in recent years boosted their cooperation in all the various fields of economy, security, trade, education, energy and culture.
