War in Ukraine can be easily ended with Trump administration's approach - Erdoğan

Reuters reports.

Erdoğan is convinced that “more diplomacy will open the door to peace.”

"We can easily end this war if we see a Trump administration that approaches the issue with a solution-based perspective. More dialogue, diplomacy, agreement will open the door to peace, not weapons, bombs and conflict,” he said.

He also emphasized that Ankara calls for the end of Russia's war against Ukraine through negotiations, adding that “the negative impact of the conflict on the world must be mitigated.”

"We are a country that has managed to bring both sides together around the same table. We have done this many times and can do it again. This war must end now. We have focused our efforts on peace and will continue to do so," Erdoğan said.
