Makei: Belarus is ready to do its utmost for the resolution of the Turkey-Russia conflict

MINSK, 4 January (BelTA) – Belarus is ready to do its utmost for the resolution of the Turkey-Russia conflict, Belarus’ Minister of Foreign Affairs Vladimir Makei told the Belarus 1 TV channel, BelTA has learned.

“Belarus is not going to impose mediation services on anyone. We are judging by the fact that the pressure on each other and sanctions are not the means for the resolution of issues in interstate relations. As for the recent disagreements between Russia and Turkey, I am convinced that sooner or later this conflict will be resolved,” Vladimir Makei said.

According to the diplomat, the Belarusian government has voiced its opinion regarding the Turkish-Russian conflict to the leaders of the two countries. “We cannot make the sides act in a way we would like them to act, but we can voice our opinion. We are interested in regulating this conflict as soon as possible and are ready, if necessary, to do our utmost for it. We are doing the same for Ukraine,” the minister noted.
