The Russian and Turkish presidents have said their countries were entering a new phase in their relations after recent disputes. Russian President Vladimir Putin hosted Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in St. Petersburg on August 9. It was their first face-to-face talks since Turkey downed a Russian warplane near the Syrian border last November, leading to Russian trade sanctions on Turkey. It also comes less than a month after a failed military coup in Turkey in which 230 people were killed. (AP Video)
