During the meeting, Zelenskiy and Fidan engaged in discussions covering a range of important topics.
“I received Foreign Minister of Türkiye @HakanFidan to discuss a range of important issues. Preparations for the Global Peace Summit and the Peace Formula. Russia's threats to the Black Sea grain corridor. I thank Türkiye for its consistent and lasting support for Ukraine,” Zelensky wrote on social media platform X.
The abandoned grain export deal, which was originally facilitated by Turkey and the United Nations, was designed to ensure the secure export of Ukrainian grain through the Black Sea. Russia's withdrawal from the agreement last month has prompted heightened tensions in the region. In light of this, Ankara has been actively involved in efforts to convince Moscow to reinstate its commitment to the deal.
The meeting between Zelenskiy and Fidan underscores the seriousness of the situation and the collective efforts being made to address the repercussions of Russia's actions. As Ukraine navigates these challenges, diplomatic channels remain open in the pursuit of regional stability and cooperation.
The discussions between the Ukrainian President and the Turkish Foreign Minister reflect the complexities of the geopolitical landscape in the Black Sea region and highlight the significance of fostering peaceful resolutions to ensure the well-being of all parties involved. (ILKHA)
