This was reported by the Turkish Anadolu agency.

Erdogan, in a conversation with Putin, said that maintaining a positive attitude towards peace between the Russian Federation and Ukraine, which emerged during the talks in Istanbul, is in the interests of all parties, according to the Turkish Presidential Administration’s Communications Department.
“Erdogan again voiced the idea of holding a meeting between the presidents of the Russian Federation and Ukraine as an important stage in the Istanbul negotiation process. The Turkish leader emphasized the importance of a ceasefire, the effectiveness of humanitarian corridors and safe evacuation from war zones,” the agency notes.
The Turkish leader also called for an early cessation of hostilities, which threaten to damage the interests of all parties.

- At a press conference in the Kiev metro, the President of Ukraine told what questions he would first of all raise during a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
