Key topics in the Erdoğan-Trump meeting

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan announced in an interview with journalists last Friday that he would hold an important phone call with US President Donald Trump on Monday.

It was emphasized that the main agenda items for the meeting include the current state of the war in Ukraine, developments in the Middle East, and regional diplomacy. In particular, the crises in Palestine and Gaza, as well as potential steps to be taken in international relations, are expected to be discussed in detail during the bilateral talks.

When asked by a journalist about "how the war between Russia and Ukraine will take shape in 2026," President Erdoğan stated the following:

"As you know, my discussions are ongoing with Mr. Putin, Mr. Zelensky, and on this matter, with Trump and the leaders of European countries. We will have another meeting with Mr. Trump around 16:00 on Monday. We will have the opportunity to discuss the issues between Russia and Ukraine, as well as the issues in Palestine."

Today's contact is also expected to bring up current developments regarding the detention of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro in the US. It is stated that the leaders will make assessments regarding the resolution of regional problems and the management of international crises.

The potential reflections of this new meeting between Erdoğan and Trump on the foreign policies of both countries and the impact it will have on diplomatic relations are being awaited with curiosity.
