The geopolitical dynamics of the Russia-Ukraine war are shifting as Turkey positions itself as a key mediator in upcoming peace negotiations. Following a significant phone call between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy's visit to Turkey signifies Ukraine's attempt to engage with potential allies. Turkey's President Erdogan emphasizes his nation's reliability in fostering dialogue, although there are uncertainties if his offers will be acknowledged. Political analysts note Turkey's aspirations for a mediating role may face challenges, especially as feelings of exclusion from major diplomatic initiatives surface.
Turkey has always tried to keep diplomatic channels open to both sides while maintaining good relations with Moscow and Kyiv.
Erdogan declared that Turkey would do its best to help conclude the negotiation process with a lasting peace.
Turkey, as an emerging regional power, has long aspired to play a mediating role in this conflict.
If the US wants Turkish involvement in the future, it would be ready to assume the role.
