Before making a final decision about the future of German troops at Turkey’s İncirlik Airbase, Germany will wait two more weeks for Ankara to review its move to block a group of German lawmakers from visiting the airbase, Der Spiegel reported on Saturday.

According to the report, top German officials from the foreign and defense ministries briefed parliamentarians on Friday. The final decision will be taken in accordance with two weeks of talks between Berlin and Ankara. Noting that foreign and defense ministry officials believe that President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan will not change his stance on the issue, Der Spiegel underlined that no breakthrough was recorded during a meeting in Brussels on Thursday between German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Erdoğan.
