On March 1, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov talked over the phone with Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Türkiye Hakan Fidan.
Sergey Lavrov said that in the early hours of February 28, the Kiev regime made an attempt to attack the Russkaya booster station on the Turk Stream pipeline with three drones, all of which were shot down by the air defence systems of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. He urged his Turkish counterpart to use the expedients available to Ankara for influencing Kiev and cut short the Kiev regime's repeated attempts to launch terrorist attacks against civilian infrastructure facilities.
Hakan Fidan assured him that the necessary measures would be taken.
In the run-up to the Russian-Turkish talks in Ankara on February 24, the ministers reaffirmed the importance of Russia and Türkiye continuing their coordinated work to maintain peace, stability and security in the region, based on the agreements reached by President of Russia Vladimir Putin and President of Türkiye Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
