Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on the Russia-Ukraine war:

The war itself really went from a war of attrition to a war of destruction in the last year.

Now there is no place that is not targeted. We also see civilian casualties steadily increasing.

As a nation that knows war and knows how to fight, we said from the beginning where this would lead.

It will escalate more and more. Geographically, systematically and in terms of goals, unfortunately, this is the point we have reached.

It needs to stop to prevent it from spreading and causing more disasters.
