Kuleba expressed hope on Wednesday that his Russian counterpart Lavrov will approach talks in Türkiye on ending the two-week war in a sincere manner. The meeting is likely to be tense after Kuleba in an interview last week with CNN described Lavrov as the "Ribbentrop of his time" in reference to the foreign minister of Nazi Germany in World War II.Erdogan has called the Russian invasion "unacceptable" but at the same time, his country has not joined Western sanctions against Moscow and refused to close its airspace to Russian planes.
Kiev wants the war on its territory to end and Russian troops to completely withdraw from Ukrainian soil, including in Crimea and anti-Kiev rebel-held Donbass region.
