As Ukraine claims that Russia could be poised to invade, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has invited the leaders of both nations to come to his country to try to settle their differences diplomatically.
Ibrahim Kalin, a spokesperson for Erdogan, announced the offer on Wednesday, saying that Turkey would like to assist in de-escalating the situation.
“President Erdogan has invited both leaders to come to Turkey and have a meeting to solve their problems and differences,” Kalin stated. “Turkey is prepared to play any role in reducing tensions between Russia and Ukraine.”
He noted that Erdogan is planning a trip to Kiev in the coming weeks. “At the same time, we will be in close contact with Russia, in order to avoid any type of military action, which could have serious consequences,” he added.
