Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davudoglu met with President of Federal Kurdistan Region Maasoud Barzani and Prime Minister Behram Saleh.

Davudoglu made a short statement before the meeting saying that they hope to see all Iraqi etnic and political groups around a table to pave the way for the formation of a government in Iraq.

Turkey was "very interested in the initiative" by Regional Kurdish Administration President Massoud Barzani, Davutoğlu said ahead of meetings with Barzani and the region's prime minister, Barham Saleh.

Barzani has invited all political blocs to meet in Arbil, the Iraqi Kurdish capital, on Monday in a bid to resolve the crisis that has left the country without a new government since its March 7 legislative election.
