Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan spoke with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Monday evening to discuss ongoing efforts to establish peace between Russia and Ukraine, according to Turkish diplomatic sources.
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan held a phone call with his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov on Monday. The conversation focused on the latest diplomatic initiatives aimed at achieving peace between Russia and Ukraine, Turkish Foreign Ministry sources confirmed.
The timing of the call is significant, as it comes just days before representatives from Russia and Ukraine are scheduled to meet in Istanbul on Thursday for what will be their first direct peace talks in more than three years.
Türkiye has repeatedly positioned itself as a potential mediator in the Russia-Ukraine conflict and has hosted earlier rounds of negotiations since the war began. The upcoming talks in Istanbul mark a renewed attempt to de-escalate tensions and explore possibilities for a diplomatic resolution.
Further details of the Fidan-Lavrov call were not disclosed.
