Closing of the Syrian-Turkish border will contribute to the solution of the terrorism issue in Syria, Russian FM Sergei Lavrov said after the talks with his Syrian counterpart Walid Muallem.

“We are sure that by closing this border, we will decide the issue of terrorism eradication on the Syrian territory in many respects,” the FM said, Lenta.ru reports.

According to Lavrov, Moscow has been supporting the initiative of the French leader Francois Hollande on closing the aforementioned border long ago.

Apart from the closing of the Syrian-Turkish border, Russia supports the implementation of the provisions of Resolution No 2199 on prohibiting the funding of extremist organizations at the expense of the sale of petrol and artifacts.
