FM says Turkey won’t join western sanctions against Russia

Turkey will not join the sanctions of several Western countries against Russia due to a special operation in Ukraine, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said at the Antalya Diplomacy Forum on Sunday, March 13.

“We think that sanctions will not solve the problem,” the Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said while answering a question about Turkey's position on imposing sanctions against the Russian Federation, according to TASS, as cited by Trend of Azerbaijan.
“For example, the closure of airspace. We cannot close it in accordance with the Montreux Convention. This is a legal obligation,” Cavusoglu added.
