Turkey is ready to provide all forms of support – including serving as a platform for peace talks – to ensure a just and sustainable peace,” the Turkish statement said. Erdogan also highlighted the significance of actions aimed at securing maritime trade in the Black Sea, stressing that such steps would contribute to the overall peace process.
