Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is in Istanbul on Saturday to meet with Turkey’s president.
“During a meeting with President of Turkiye Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Istanbul, we discussed bilateral relations between our countries, as well as the situation in Europe and the Middle East. It is important that joint and coordinated actions strengthen the protection of life and help deliver greater security to people in every part of the world.
We agreed on new steps in security cooperation. This primarily concerns areas where we can support Turkiye – expertise, technology, and experience. There is firm political readiness to work together, and our teams will finalize the details in the coming days. We discussed practical steps to implement joint projects in developing gas infrastructure, as well as opportunities for joint development of gas fields.
I am grateful to the President and the people of Turkiye for their consistent support for our independence and territorial integrity. We value our close cooperation over all these years, which enables us to work on truly significant projects that can strengthen our entire region,”Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky posted on X.
