We’re ready for leaders' meeting in Türkiye in Zelenskyy-Putin format, with participation of Erdogan, Trump - Sybiha

Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha confirmed readiness for a meeting at the level of the leaders of Ukraine and Russia, with the participation of the President of Türkiye and potentially the United States.

During the ADF-Talks public discussion at the 5th Antalya Diplomacy Forum on Friday, Sybiha emphasized that Türkiye is a country with "unique diplomatic experience and global influence." He again thanked the Turkish side for its support, citing the creation of the Black Sea Grain Corridor following the start of Russia’s full-scale aggression.

"We also rely on our Turkish friends, for example, regarding the organization of a meeting at the leaders’ level. So we are ready for this meeting. Also in Türkiye. I mean a meeting between Zelenskyy, Putin, Mr. Erdogan, and possibly Trump. We conveyed this message to our Turkish friends during the recent visit of my president," Sybiha stated.

The minister emphasized that Türkiye plays a very important role in peace efforts.

As reported, on April 16-18, Sybiha is visiting the Republic of Türkiye, where he is participating in the 5th Antalya Diplomacy Forum at the invitation of his Turkish counterpart, Hakan Fidan.
