Requirements for the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin to Ukraine to recognize “independence” Lundar, and the Crimea – Russian, are “maximalist and unrealistic,” the representative of Turkey’s President Ibrahim Kalyn said in the CNN comments.
“These are red lines for Ukrainians in Crimea and Donbass. And it is correct because it is directly related to the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine. We did not recognize the annexation of the Crimea, as well as the whole world. Even China did not recognize the annexation of the Crimea … (Russians) really worth come up with some other ideas, “the words of Calyne reports UNIAN.
The representative of Turkish President added that Erdogan adheres to an open line of communication with its Russian and Ukrainian colleagues to help achieve cease-fire, especially with Russia.
To the question, whether Putin Erdogan is listening, Kalyn replied that the presidents “long-standing relationship”. “Of course, President of the Russian Federation Putin listens to the President of Turkey Erdogan, to his advice, ideas and suggestions. From their point of view, it can be understood that they do not trust most NATO countries, they do not want to talk with them, right or not. However Such is the reality that someone can speak with the Russian side to whom Russians can also trust. Otherwise, this war can last months, years, and the world will not be able to afford one more such a protracted war. And, of course, we cannot Allow one more cold war, “Kalyne added.
