Russia’s war against Ukraine must end before 2025.
This hope was expressed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Turkey Hakan Fidan, writes CNN Turk and Turkrus.
— This year is difficult, we hope for peace in 2025. The war must end now. Our President calls for peace using all his leadership skills, — noted Fidan.

As Fidan noted, Turkey actively calls for peace and does this from various international platforms, in particular NATO and the European Union. The Foreign Minister stressed that the war has turned into a protracted conflict, which leads to significant losses for both sides.

In addition, Fidan expressed concern about the likely spread of the war to a wider region, which could have unpredictable consequences. He appealed to Europe to pay more attention to the situation in Ukraine, because there are high risks that the war will spread to other countries.
The minister noted that a war of attrition does not bring victory to either side, but only deepens the humanitarian crisis and causes economic losses. He called on the international community to intensify its efforts to achieve sustainable peace in the region.
By the way, on March 8, during a meeting with the head of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky in Turkey, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan expressed his intention to hold a peace summit with the participation of the Russian Federation.
