Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan met president of the European Council and U.S. ambassador to the UN in separate meetings on Wednesday.
His first meeting was with European Council's Charles Michel at the presidential complex in Ankara.
The meeting that lasted for two hours was also attended by Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu and EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell.
Later in the day, Turkey's leader received Kelly Craft, Washington's ambassador to the UN. Cavusoglu was also present in the closed-door meeting.
No details regarding what transpired during the meetings were shared with the media.
The consultations come in the wake of Ankara's decision not to stop asylum seekers from Turkey to proceed toward Europe.
