Details: According to the statement, the discussion focused on “what can be done to end the Russian-Ukrainian war,” as well as the conflict in the Gaza Strip.
Erdoğan was joined in the meeting by Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, Defence Minister Yaşar Güler, Communications Director Fahrettin Altun, and Chief Presidential Adviser on Foreign Policy and Security Akif Çağatay Kılıç.
Rutte stated that he talked with Erdogan about “growing challenges to our collective security — including the threat of terrorism, the war in Ukraine, and the crisis in the Middle East.”
“In an increasingly unpredictable world, Türkiye makes invaluable contributions to our Alliance, reinforcing deterrence on our Southern flank,” Rutte said.
Background:
- Media reports recently suggested that Erdogan’s “peace plan” for Ukraine envisages a freeze on hostilities at the parties’ current positions and postponing the discussion of Kyiv’s accession to NATO for at least 10 years as a concession to Putin.
- Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan made it clear that he does not support the US decision to allow Ukraine to use US ATACMS missiles in Russia.
