Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan reaffirmed Turkey's unwavering support for Ukraine's territorial integrity during the Fourth Crimea Platform Leaders Summit, emphasizing that the return of Crimea is a requirement of international law. He condemned Russia's annexation of Crimea and highlighted the ongoing suffering of Crimean Tatars, pledging further support for their rights. Erdoğan thanked Ukrainian President Zelensky and Crimean Tatar leader Kirimoglu for organizing the summit, which marks the 80th anniversary of the Crimean Tatars' deportation. His statements may strain Turkey's previously cordial relations with Russia, as they directly challenge President Putin's actions in the region. Erdoğan also expressed hope for a just and lasting peace in Ukraine, rooted in its territorial integrity. The summit was attended by various international officials, reinforcing global support for Ukraine's sovereignty.
