Turkish leader reiterates support for resolving Ukraine conflict

06 November 2024 18:06

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said that Türkiye supports efforts to ensure a just and stable peace in Ukraine.

Erdogan made the remarks at the summit of the Organisation of Turkic States (OTS) in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, Caliber.Az reports, citing Turkish media.

“The war in Ukraine is in its third year and continues to lead to negative consequences. We initially favoured its settlement through diplomacy. We support ensuring a just and stable peace,” Erdogan said.

It is important to note that Türkiye’s stance on the Ukraine conflict is rooted in a careful balancing act, aiming to support Ukraine’s defence capabilities and ensure regional stability while maintaining diplomatic ties with Russia. Türkiye has been a key supporter of Ukraine through military aid, including drones, ammunition, and training, which complements Western aid and helps sustain Ukraine’s defences.

At the same time, Türkiye avoids escalating tensions directly with Russia by continuing trade, convening negotiations, and managing Black Sea security with an eye on regional peace. Unlike other NATO leaders, who have imposed sanctions on Putin's government, Erdogan has tried to maintain good relations with both Russia and Ukraine throughout the conflict.

Türkiye also played a key role in putting in place a deal to ensure grain could be shipped safely from Ukraine's Black Sea ports. The accord remained in effect for a year.
