“We will consider what steps to take after our conversation with President Erdoğan,” he said, according to Onedio. He also noted that the composition and level of the Russian delegation, which would potentially participate in talks in Istanbul, remains officially unknown.
The visit marks a significant diplomatic engagement, as Türkiye continues its efforts to mediate between Kyiv and Moscow while maintaining relations with both sides of the conflict.
