The Kremlin stated on Monday a phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his counterpart Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan during which the leaders discussed the relations between the two countries and means to increase cooperation.

"A telephone conversation between Russian President Vladimir Putin and President of the Republic of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan took place. Issues of expanding bilateral cooperation in various fields were discussed in detail. In particular, a record growth in trade turnover was noted," the Kremlin announced in a statement.

The presidents also addressed the Ukrainian issue in addition to the developments regarding the Grain Deal.

"The progress of the implementation of the Istanbul agreements of July 22 on the export of Ukrainian grain from the Black Sea ports and the export of Russian agricultural products and fertilizers was discussed," added the statement, noting that, "This deal is complex in nature, which requires removing obstacles to relevant supplies from Russia in order to meet the needs of the countries most in need."

Earlier this month, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced that Ankara is carrying out preparations to establish the gas hub project suggested earlier by Moscow.

On October 12, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Moscow could redirect gas transit from the Nord Stream pipelines, damaged by an explosion classified by Russia as an act of terrorism, to Turkey.

Turkish Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Fatih Donmez stated then that Turkey and Russia have come to an agreement over creating a gas hub that will link the two through Europe.

So far, there isn't a full understanding of how and to which clients the Turkish hub's gas will be supplied, not to mention the exact location in which the hub will be built.

As for the cost of the gas hub in Turkey, sources said that it is too early to speak about the cost range. The price of the infrastructure and execution\ will be uncovered after agreeing on all the details of the project.
