Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha: "During our meeting, I thanked Hakan Fidan for inviting me to Türkiye and informed him about the latest developments on the battlefield and in diplomacy.
The epicenter of world diplomacy is now in Türkiye, which is playing an active mediation role. We appreciate it. I reaffirmed Ukraine’s commitment to peace, our immediate and unconditional readiness for a full and durable ceasefire, as well as our offer of the highest-level direct meeting between Ukraine and Russia.
Putin must stop rejecting the ceasefire and avoiding the meeting with President Zelenskyy.
We had a thorough conversation about ways to advance meaningful peace process. I am grateful to my colleague for his support and valuable insights".
The parties discussed preparations for tomorrow's visit of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy to Türkiye and talks with President of Türkiye Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
