The President of Turkey called himself the only leader capable of conducting a dialogue with both the President of Russia and the President of Ukraine
PRAGUE, October 7. /TASS/. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said he plans to have a phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin on October 7.
"Not to brag about it, but I am the only leader who can engage in a dialogue both with Mr. Putin and with Mr. Zelensky. It is thanks to our efforts exactly that the exchange of prisoners happened, some of whom stay [on Turkish territory]. Meanwhile, we’ve sent [Viktor] Medvedchuk to Russia. Tomorrow, I will have a phone call with Putin, during which we will discuss the recent events," the Turkish leader said during a press conference after the European Political Community summit in Prague Thursday.
