Turkey urges careful study of China’s peace plan for Ukraine

March 26, 2023

Turkish President Erdogan’s representative Ibrahim Kalin on Turkish NTV channel called for a thorough study of China’s peace plan for Ukraine.

“China has come up with initiatives that require in-depth study,” he said.

According to him, Turkey is ready to support Chinese proposals if they create a basis for negotiations.

He added that the West had misjudged the situation and that sanctions against Russia were only pushing it towards closer ties with China.

“I think the West has misanalyzed events in the East. Sanctions against Russia are pushing it towards China. From the beginning, they always said, “Let’s separate Russia and China. The real danger is China. This policy has reached an impasse, – said Erdogan’s representative.

On Saturday, the Russian and Turkish presidents discussed a grain deal, as well as a negotiated cessation of hostilities.
