This was announced by Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar.
“We shared both our views and the concerns of Mr. Shoigu.
Our Ukrainian interlocutors made statements and remarks that addressed these concerns both during their meetings with us and during meetings of officials at the Joint Coordinating Center in Istanbul.
They were also handed over to us in writing,” the press service quoted the minister as saying.
Earlier, Foreign Ministers of Russia and Turkey Sergey Lavrov and Mevlut Cavusoglu confirmed the need to obtain reliable guarantees that Ukraine would not use the humanitarian corridor in the Black Sea for military purposes.
On the morning of October 29, the Ukrainian military, led by British specialists, attacked ships of the Black Sea Fleet and civilian ships in Sevastopol using drones.
After that, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced that Moscow was suspending its participation in the grain deal in connection with the attack.
