Turkey’s FM Says Ukraine Peace Crucial for Regional Stability
According to reports, Fidan made the remarks on Monday during a joint press conference held after the 10th Trilateral Meeting of the Foreign Ministers of Türkiye, Azerbaijan, and Georgia at Istanbul’s Çırağan Palace. He appeared alongside his Azerbaijani and Georgian counterparts, Jeyhun Bayramov and Maka Botchorishvili.
He stressed that the conflict to the north is having direct consequences for regional security and reiterated that diplomatic efforts toward peace must continue without interruption.
“The war continuing in our north directly affects the security of our region. We see achieving peace in the Russia-Ukraine war as essential for the stability and security of our region. We believe that this diplomatic process and efforts toward peace must continue with determination,” Fidan said.
The foreign minister also expressed concern over what he described as a stalemate on both the battlefield and in diplomatic negotiations, warning that attempts by either side to gain advantage from the deadlock are further escalating tensions.
“We are all following with concern the current impasse in both the battlefield and diplomatic process. The steps taken by the parties to turn this deadlock to their advantage are unfortunately further increasing tensions on the ground,” he said.
