Hangzhou, China (CNN) US President Barack Obama met with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan Sunday while in China for the G20 summit, reassuring him that the US remained intent on helping bring plotters of July's coup attempt to justice. The Turkish leader was expected to press Obama on US-based cleric Fethulah Gulen , under suspicion in Turkey for helping plot the coup. Obama said Sunday the US-UK "special relationship" would persist as Britain works to exit the European Union. "Despite the turbulence of political events over the last several months, we have every intention to making sure that that continues." May insisted during a joint appearance with Obama that exit negotiations would move forward.
