The international mediator for Syria, Kofi Annan, was due in Turkey Tuesday for a visit to Syrian refugee camps near the border, a Turkish diplomatic source said today.

"The visit will only last a few hours, ahead of Annan's trip to Iran," the official told AFP on condition of anonymity. The former UN chief is expected in Tehran on Wednesday. (AFP)http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7...214064,00.html
