Ankara is willing to contribute to the elimination of differences between Russia and Ukraine, says Turkiye’s presidential spokesperson Ibrahim Kalin
Ankara advises both sides to"refrain from any kind of military engagement", Turkiye’s presidential spokesperson Ibrahim Kalin says.
Kalin’s remarks came on Tuesday at an online webinar titled ‘Russia-Ukraine Tension: What is at Stake for Europe and NATO?’ organised by the Circle Foundation. Pointing out that Turkiye fully supports the territorial integrity, political sovereignty and social cohesion of Ukraine, Kalin said “we are telling both sides, both Ukrainians and the Russians, to use restraint, to refrain from any kind of military engagement.”
“There are no quick fixes for these kind of large, long-term geopolitical issues, because… yes, it is about Ukraine. But in another sense, it's something… much larger, much, much bigger at stake here,” he added.
