On April 7, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan met Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, President Hassan Rouhani, and other Iranian officials in Tehran. The leaders signed eight agreements focused on improving economic cooperation, and downplayed disagreements between Iran and Turkey over the conflicts in Yemen and Syria. “I don’t look at the sect,” Erdogan said. “It does not concern me whether Shia or Sunni, what concerns me is Muslims.”
