As TASS reports with reference to the TRT television channel, the Turkish leader indicated his intention to make a new attempt to open the door to peace by managing processes that are result-oriented and free from outside influence.

“We continue this search through contacts with both Mr. Putin and Mr. Zelensky. We have emphasized from the very beginning that a just peace is better than war, and we strive to take all our steps with this understanding,” Erdogan said.

Earlier it was reported about Putin and Erdogan’s plans to discuss the situation in Ukraine during the Russian President’s visit to Ankara.
