According to reports, some rebel groups have yet to leave the designated area despite a deadline set for Oct. 15. Moscow, however, has expressed its satisfaction with Ankara's efforts to persuade the rebels to leave the demilitarized zone.
Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moualem said on Oct. 15 that the Syrian army was ready to drive the jihadists out of Idlib, but he also signaled that Damascus would not take such a step without Moscow's consent.
Ankara, Moscow and Tehran are partners in the so-called Astana process, which seeks a political settlement of the Syrian war.
Ankara would seek to obtain Moscow's consent at the summit that radical Islamist groups in Idlib be allowed to leave the province over an extended period of time, Koni said.
Like the United States, France and Germany are against a military operation in Idlib, calling for a political settlement through UN-led negotiations.
Hossein Jaberi Ansari, senior assistant to Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, warned that it would not be possible to settle the Syrian crisis without Iran.
During a visit to Moscow on Wednesday, he said, "No country can leave Iran out when the issue is Syria."
"It's obvious that the U.S. and Iran, which are not invited to the summit, would not want the summit to produce a concrete result," said Dilek.
