Raeisi will attend a private meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan during his visit. 

The Iranian and Turkish presidents will also attend the 8th Iran-Turkey Supreme Council of Economic Cooperation.

Then they will explain the results of their consultations in a press conference with media persons.

Raeisi and Erdogan will attend the joint meeting of businessmen and economic activists of Iran and Turkey, and Ayatollah Raeisi will also hold a meeting with Iranians living in this country.

a Turkish official said last week that the talks will focus on the situations in Gaza and Syria as well as bilateral ties, 

A planned visit by Raeisi in late November was postponed due to the conflicting schedules of the two regional powers' foreign ministers, the official also said. At the time, Turkey's foreign minister was in New York as part of a "contact group" of Muslim countries on Gaza.
