“We oppose the processes that will lead to military conflict and war in the region, including Donbass, we have always stated this,” he said in an interview with Anadolu.
According to Kalyn, Russia, Ukraine and NATO countries have certain areas of responsibility for reducing the level of tension in the region.
He stressed that this should not contribute to the escalation of the situation through provocations.
“Thousands of people have suffered in Donbass, so we are ready to support all steps to reduce tensions,” added Erdogan's spokesman.
Earlier, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that Ankara is ready to mediate negotiations between Russia and Ukraine to achieve peace in the region.
