Ukraines Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha, has said following his participation in the Antalya Diplomatic Forum in Trkiye that the world recognises the need to end the war in Ukraine in a fair manner.
Source Sybiha in an interview with Ukrinform Quote The key conclusion we can draw from bilateral and multilateral meetings, and from participation in discussion panels, is that everyone understands the need and importance of ending the war in Ukraine in a fair way.
They support the achievement of a comprehensive and just peace for Ukraine, as well as the need to support Ukraines efforts on this path to end this unprovoked war and stop Russian aggression.
Details Sybiha also noted that all of his interlocutors in Antalya recognise that security in Ukraine, and the way this war against Ukraine ends, directly affects the security situation in other regions of the world in Africa, the Middle East, and the IndoPacific.
The minister added that he felt his interlocutors support for Ukraines principled approach.
He said he had held more than 20 meetings with representatives of African countries.

We have huge potential in Africa.
Despite the war, we have opened nine embassies there.
We will increase our presence on the African continent because it is mutually beneficial.
I am returning with a clear understanding of the specific areas that we will definitely strengthen.
In terms of concrete results, it is also important that we have secured the decision of at least three African countries to stop accrediting their ambassadors through Moscow.
This will change.
It is a shameful practice.
Consequently, this will lead to the strengthening and intensification of our bilateral relations, he said.
Sybiha also called Trkiye one of Ukraines most important strategic partners.
During meetings with Turkish representatives, we discussed security in the Black Sea and, potentially, Trkiyes participation in Ukraines future security infrastructure and guarantees.
We continue to count on Trkiyes active role in supporting our peace efforts.
We welcome these efforts, the minister said.
