The Turkish president expressed his confidence in the possibility of finding a “reasonable and feasible solution” to get out of the crisis, which has implications for the entire world, as well as for the warring parties.
And in late March, Istanbul witnessed talks between the Russian and Ukrainian delegations at the Dolmabahce Presidential Palace.
This follows Turkish diplomatic efforts aimed at ending the war and bringing peace between the two sides of the crisis.
Erdogan stressed that while making efforts to end the clashes between Russia and Ukraine on the one hand, Turkey will continue to work closely with the United Nations to put an end to the humanitarian crisis.
