Russian President Putin to visit Turkey in February, says Kremlin

Jan 30, 2024

Moscow [Russia], January 30: Russian President Vladimir Putin is still planning to visit Turkey in February, the first time he has entered a NATO member state since launching his war on Ukraine in February 2022.
"Yes a visit is being organized," Putin's foreign affairs adviser in the Kremlin Yuri Ushakov told the news agency Interfax on Monday.
A date has not yet been announced.
The war in Ukraine will be a major topic of the talks, which Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is likely to take part in.
Putin has been named a war crimes suspect by the International Criminal Court in The Hague and has largely avoided travelling abroad since the start of the war.
The 71-year-old faces a presidential election in March which he is almost certain of winning, but political commentators say he wants to show he can still be a statesman on the world stage.
Although there is an international arrest warrant out for him, there is no indication Turkey would arrest him. (DPA)
