Turkey demands that Russia end the war against Ukraine
On the evening of December 12, Russian invaders carried out an air attack on the Ukrainian port of Chornomorsk.
This time, a ship under a foreign flag, owned by a Turkish company, came under enemy attack.
The Turkish Foreign Ministry responded to the cynical attack by the aggressor country, Russia.
"This demonstrates the validity of our previously expressed concerns about the spread of the ongoing war in our region to the Black Sea, as well as the safety and freedom of navigation," Turkish diplomats were indignant.
In addition, it is emphasized that the Consulate General of Turkey in Odessa is closely monitoring the further development of events and the actions of the Russian invaders.
Amid the intensification of Russian terror, official Ankara called for an early end to Russia's war against Ukraine.
We recall the need to adopt an agreement aimed at preventing escalation in the Black Sea by suspending attacks that threaten the safety of navigation and are aimed at the energy and port infrastructure of the parties, the Turkish Foreign Ministry emphasized.
