Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has called for the “worrying” developments in eastern Ukraine’s Donbas region to come to an end after meeting his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskiyy in Istanbul on Sunday, adding Turkey was ready to provide any necessary support.
Fighting in eastern Ukraine between government forces and Russian-backed separatists in Donbas has escalated.
President Erdoğan says he hopes the dispute can be solved through dialogue.
As a NATO member, Turkey is in a sensitive position at the moment, as it is likely to support the alliance in any potential crisis between Ukraine and Washington on one side, and Moscow on the other.
Al Jazeera’s Sinem Koseoglu reports from Istanbul, Turkey.

Ottoman vs Tsardom
Amazing how Putin can afford this major mobilisation , and for what purpose ? and yet he can not provide a credible covid-19 relief package for his people like the west , in the meanwhile he is using the same pretext to justify this action re: the Russian speakers in the region and yet , in truth they are bilingual and majority Christian, as for Putin loosing his pet poodle or be it useful idiot Trump , if this is, his way of testing Joe Biden’s statement of America is Back , he will have badly miscalculated big time, enough said
Ukraine is fighting people on their own territory. American troops are not fighting in Eastern Ukraine, but if Russian troops enter Ukraine and start fighting there, it is 100% guaranteed that America will then send an equal number of American troops to fight off the invading Russian troops.
Ukrainian Leader is desperate cause NATO don’t wanna know.
Clown!
Where r u from??
Our Sultan looks awesome
Look like Turkey want to stay neutral on Ukraine issue with Russia.
Watching how WWIII alliances are forming.

Hahahaha…old hostilities refreshing
I think Erdogan is scarred, the last thing you want is to go to war with Russia. Now he needs to defend Ukraine as he has no choice, then he will need help from the EU, but has no friends, bad situation for him and it will come at a cost, which at the moment with the lira so low is a worry.
What is your problem with lira
🤣
8 TL 1 dolar
70 Rubel 1 dolar
100 yen 1 dolar
So what
Turkey is a g20 country
Fool
God will destroy turkey .
ITS SNAKE IN BIBEL PROPHECY
Ukraine is surely to be back-stabbed very soon.
Turkey is a good country, turks shall unite ukrain, and russia.
Russia is a part of Ukraine.
Russian troops just want to return home to Kievan Rus.
Once we are there we will serve our Ukrainian masters.
I promise.

The law of wolves is to eat the weak one. 🇹🇷🐺
😂😂😂 Putin wasted all that effort for nothing. He knows he wont do anything to Turkey. The armenian war already showed Putins fear of Turkey.
Learn before you talk stupidity. Russia didn’t support Armenia in Karabagh war coz Karabagh wasn’t recognized as part of Armenia. In Ukraine, it’s totally different. He’ll not hesitate to fuxk Erdogan from behind.
Turkey itself brought s-400 from Russia so how chan they act against Russia?
Turkey drones will make short work of Russian backed separatists in Ukraine
russia has it too.
edit every rich country has a drone with beam riding missile.
Even the more powerful ottomans lost to Russia so Ukraine don’t be so stupid to start a war
use chechen against enemy…turkey should betray in their hard time just they did in past
Erdogan showed more solidarity than EU lol
He has kurds separatists… He is shooting his own feet… Guess who now russian will help…
🤭🤭😂
Coming soon imam mehendi inshaallah fit all muslim brothers plz
Jerusalem will be liberated inshaallah
snakes always meet their match in the end!
Turkey can’t support itself. It is dependent on financial support from Europe, which might end soon, if Turkey continues its downwards spiral, financially and politically. So Turkey won’t be supporting anyone else soon.
@B Beneke I am citizen of Turkey, I know Turkey more than you do.
@John DESMOND Because Turkey lives only on exports to the West.
@John DESMOND Para jok!😂
@Martin Kopic How funny haha
@John DESMOND Ekmek var komsu? Bok var! 🤣😋
Ирдоган двуличный как и Зеленский клоун
Совсем недавно говорил Путину – Дру, , все лицемеры и убийцы!
USA been monitoring situation eversince russia started bombing Us sponsor rebels in syria
If war erupts Ukraine will be defeated. It truly depends on its leader.
At least someone is helping ukraine
I’m confused I thought Turkey is working on closer ties with Russia especially with the purchase of the S400 missile systems.
Turkey is collaborating with Ukraine on several UAV systems.There is a ethnic group called crimean tatars in crimea etc. that’s why turkey does not recognize crimea as part of russia
Viva erdogan
Well… This is interesting now!
Dear Putin ,
Are you watching Erdogan? It seems he need something else than friendship.
He is in Libya , Syria , Armenia , now in Ukraine 🤔, maybe he thought you only care about S400 and Gaz pipe.
Support to Turkey from Bangladesh.. 🇧🇩🇹🇷🇧🇩🇹🇷🇧🇩🇹🇷💙💙💙💙💙
@Ricardo Silva 😅👍
@Ricardo Silva Are you mad.??Come to my country, our country are ready to give you Shelter like our Rohingya brothers… 🇧🇩🇧🇩💙💙🇹🇷🇹🇷
But turkey hates bangladesh haha
@Hasan Zafrul Greenland will melt more. You will swim to survive bro…

turkey the douches that supplied drones to kill armenians. Turkey the douches that think they can bully Greece. Turkey the douches that turned hagia sophia into a mosque..
💗 turkey
Erdogan starts ANOTHER fight.🙄

Erdogan is playing both sides
Erdogan I love you tablet ♥️🌷🇵🇰💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Erdogan I love rally ♥️🇵🇰🇹🇷💡🌙
If Turkey 🇹🇷 continues to do business with or sell Turkish weapons to Ukraine 🇺🇦, Russia 🇷🇺 could cancel the S-400 deal and demand that Turkey 🇹🇷 return the S-400 missiles.
this is what US want lmao
Turkey and Ukraine friends
Russia angry Mafia
Wrong enemy to give drones to shooting practice .
Which the Russians would do with your drones Erogan !!! lol !!!
Al jazeera: russia is amassing troops inside its borders
Also al jazeera: russia is occupying moscow
Weak.
*Putin like a child wants to play in childish war. As Ukrainian I am sure in victory over the biggest evil – the Ugro-finnic Russia!*
We are with turkey always we love turkey 🇹🇷🇧🇩😍😍😍👌
The heart of a wise man makes his mouth understanding, and his lips more persuasive.
Master strategist is he or other 🤔🤔🤔
At the first meeting Erdoğan gave Ukraine a lots of hope of support but at the second meeting changed his mind because of the USA Turkey thinks that if the USA enters to Black Sea will stay for unlimited period even forever
in all conflicts there is Turkey
but come on compare russia to turkey? It would only take one day for Russia to destroy Turkey
🌷🇵🇰🌷🇵🇰🌷🇵🇰🌷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷ramzan your company miss⛺♥️🌷🇵🇰🇹🇷🌷♥️🇵🇰🇹🇷💡🌙⛺
China pushing into Taiwan 🇹🇼 and seeing what will the US 🇺🇸 do and here Russia 🇷🇺 testing how far they can move without the US interfering no coincidence WW2 all over again yet no one might survive given the nuclear arsenal at our disposal
🇺🇸 Turkey and Ukraine need to have collaboration to slow down the tensions as having peaceful communication with the opposition.
This man Erdogan can’t develop his country turkey but he is everywhere to make Chaos
Hard times for Turkey. Benefits of playing both sides policy is about to end soon. Erdogan will suffer losses from both sides this time.
That’s what the good people of the world wish!
turkey want’s to join 🙆🏻♂️
Ich habe richtig Angst alter wenn krieg passiert
Bad bad move Turkey. I’m gutted. Please be a bit more responsible and stay neutral.. Dam it!!
Crimean War 2: Electric Boogaloo
🍿🍿🍿
Don’t be fooled when the shooting starts turkey will fall in behind Moscow in a heartbeat….the next world war will be the USA and Europe on one side and Russia and China on the other… turkey won’t be on the loosing side of history again..thay learnt there lesson in WW1!!!.😎
It raises the question: If Russia attacks Turkey from behind, will Greece help make it gentle?
There is simple China n Russia play the game same crisis evil again humanity.
One thing for sure.
If Russia falls, Turkey will lose its value to EU and NATO.
And Turkey will be the next subject of pressure from the West.
We want that WOR
I fully support Russia 🇷🇺 🙌
this is how ww2 and ww1 start first they are putting their military armament on the frontline then forming alliance, now just waiting something to trigger the war.
Another terrible one sided news real…March 24th 21 Zelenskuly introduces law for re occupation of crimea. Russia responds by deploying forces on its own territory. How dare they?! Such aggression. Your news reporting sucks.
EU is pushing Turkey to support Ukrain
🤣🤣🤣 shut up turkey like ukraine or russia listen to you.
Turkey’s support lmao! Such third rate Islamic country offers to take sides when elephants fights..
Turkey defeated Russia in Libya ,Syria and Armenia😂
Sta veli
Ukrainian flag at the preview is wrong!
Ukraine is making trouble for Russia. Deploying NATO missiles. Just like South Korea deploying US ballistic missiles near China. As long as they are not dummies, they should be educated. Okay, do you think Turkey is a good guy? Hahaha
Not at all, but it’s historical. The former Soviet Union acted brutally against its minorities in Ukraine, such as the Muslim Crimean Tatars and the Cossacks. At that time, many joined the Nazis and fought for the Germans in the hope of surviving. That conflict is still there, it hasn’t gone from people’s minds. For many, Russia is the threat. It is still aggressive today and threatens small states e.g. in the Baltic States, but Turkey is the same. It threatens Greece, Cyprus, Armenia and the Kurds! It’s a complicated conflict because you can’t explain with logic at all.
turkey prostitute nation, is sucking everyone dicks
Is America want too stick his noise where it not belong
On March 24 2021, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed the Decree 117/2021 approving the “strategy of disoccupation and reintegration of the temporarily occupied territory of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the Sevastopol city.” The mainstream media isn’t covering this at all.
Ukraine needs Turkish Drones. We saw what Azerbaijan did with the Armenians with Turkish drones.
At leat Ukrain have one real freinds supporting in case on peace or war. Turkey committed to do big risky job for the freinds even in weak start.
Russia now also want to occupie Ukraine some area…1914 they had occupied cremia illegaly…so greedy..Dhaka
Jangan takut sebab aku menyertai kalian sampai pada akhir jaman.
How about we kick that Grey wolf out of NATO already. This meglomaniac fascist idiot wants to pull NATO into the conflict.
Rat
Russians claim that Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Ukraine are their own land.
this was officially announced by Vladimir Putin
I think this is now an aggressive doctrine
If Turkey does not stop Russia
Russians will take courage in their actions and attack the whole Eurasia
Now this is something to be on the news. Turkey just made a huge statement to Russia.

Watching people do suicide… hmmm… i do not understand, something wrong was happening. So, let God do the plan, maybe time to harvest the dark of Nuclear cloud, disaster for human kind, to much hate and arrogancy. Retribution for evil is evil, not kindness.
Tell Biden to stay out of it let the big boys handle it
Only hope to aid the US is case of war with Russia is a Turkish dictator.
Russia should eliminate Ukraine and secure the black sea for future operations against turkey.
…. At some point turkey had to choose a side, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Or something like that.
Russia win
NATO is a paper of Tiger for Russia, and the US military is a piece of cake for Our Chinese military, Even Turkey and Japan, they’re the toys for us nowadays.🦃🍗🇷🇺🇨🇳🤝💪👊⚔️⚔️
Erdogan veut islamisie Ukraine 🇺🇦 bientôt Ukraine vas devenir un pays musilmans
la Crimée et d’autres territoires étaient des terres musulmanes
peut-être qu’il veut juste les récupérer.
after libya and karabag victory
now its time for crimea
💪💪💪🇹🇷
🤣🤣🤣aurdo -gand
They are saving muslim minority in Ukraine.
Stupid
No offense, but Zelensky looks like a little soyboy?
Ukraine sit around the table with Russia find honest solutions your country without third party.
Take example from former Egyptian president Anwar Sadat he took huge risk at his own life went to a Israel for the sake of peace and he succeeded against all the odds but sadly he lost his life and Ukraine leaders now need stop gambling in geopolitics focus only on economy.
