The agreement followed a deal between the United States and Turkey that forced the retreat of Syrian Kurdish fighters who had allied with the U.S. military in the fight against the Islamic State militant group.
ISTANBUL — President Recep Tayyip Erdogan met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday to discuss Turkey’s offensive in Syria, hours before a five-day cease-fire between Syrian Kurdish militias and Erdogan’s government was set to expire.
Turkey has threatened to restart its military offensive if the Kurdish fighters do not fully withdraw from a predetermined area along Syria’s northern border with Turkey by Tuesday evening. If the withdrawal is completed, Ankara has agreed to permanently halt its offensive, which is aimed at creating a vast buffer zone for Turkey along much of its border with Syria.
Erdogan’s meeting with Putin, the Syrian government’s most powerful supporter, was widely expected to center on the thorny aftermath of Turkey’s military operation and the rapidly shifting Syrian map of control, as U.S. troops withdraw and competing factions rush to fill the void.

“These are very critical days in the region,” Erdogan said after being greeted by Putin in the Black Sea city of Sochi on Tuesday. “The Peace Spring operation and this meeting will create very important opportunities,” he added referring to the title Turkey has given its military operation.
