Turkey: Donetsk and Lugansk recognition unacceptable

Turkey characterizes Russia’s recognition of Lugansk and Donetsk as a violation of international agreements and Ukraine’s territorial integrity.

Turkey, which has good relations with both neighboring countries and has offered to mediate in the crisis, has warned Moscow not to invade Ukraine. However, Ankara also opposes sanctions against Russia.

“Russia’s decision to recognize the Donetsk and Luhansk Republics is a clear violation not only of the Minsk agreements, but also of Ukraine’s political unity, sovereignty and territorial integrity. We consider Russia’s so-called decision unacceptable and reject it. “, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated, calling on all parties to respect international law.
