President Erdogan praised Ukraine's 30-day ceasefire with Russia, hoping for Russia's response. He also reiterated Turkey's offer to host future peace talks with Moscow.
At a press conference in Ankara, Erdogan shared the stage with Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, underscoring Turkey's role in facilitating peace efforts in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict. He reaffirmed Turkey's willingness to mediate future talks between Kyiv and Moscow, provided the ceasefire leads to productive dialogue.
The Ukrainian government had signaled its willingness to enter a ceasefire with Russia after diplomatic discussions with the United States, marking a shift toward diplomacy in a war that has now stretched into its third year. While Ukraine's acceptance of the ceasefire has raised hopes of a de-escalation, Russia's response remains uncertain.
Erdogan has long positioned Turkey as a key intermediary in the conflict, maintaining good relations with both Russia and Ukraine. His offer to host peace talks in Turkey, a country that has previously facilitated dialogues between the two sides, could be crucial in bringing both parties back to the negotiating table.
In his comments, Erdogan emphasized Turkey's desire to contribute to global peace efforts, particularly in a region marked by the complex dynamics of the ongoing war. He also expressed confidence that diplomatic efforts could help bring an end to the suffering caused by the war, benefiting both the region and the broader international community.
As the conflict continues to shape European security and global geopolitics, Turkey's role as a potential mediator remains pivotal.
