Abadi, according to the statement, called for the respect of the Iraqi sovereignty and defusing all causes of tension with Turkey.
He said people of the region should join hands against terrorism.
This is the first phone call between the two leaders since crisis of the Turkish forces deployment in the camp of Bashiqa, near Mosul.
