The Turkish government has repeatedly offered to mediate in the Ukraine war and called for a ceasefire. President Erdogan will be on the phone with Kremlin chief Putin on Sunday.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will telephone Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin on Sunday about the Ukraine war. This was announced by Erdogan’s spokesman, Ibrahim Kalin, according to the state news agency Anadolu.
NATO member Turkey maintains close ties with Ukraine and Russia. Ankara condemns the invasion but does not participate in sanctions against Russia. The Turkish government has repeatedly offered to mediate and called for a ceasefire.
Turkey also plays an important role because it has sovereignty over the straits between the Mediterranean and the Black Sea (Dardanelles and Bosphorus). Turkey is currently restricting the passage of warships belonging to the conflicting parties. About a week ago, Ankara rejected Moscow’s attempt to bring more warships through the Straits into the Black Sea. The rights of passage are regulated in the Treaty of Montreux, which Turkey implements.
