Erdogan may win Nobel Prize for Ukraine efforts: Dutch newspaper
(MENAFN- Trend News Agency)
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan may win the Nobel Peace
Prize for his efforts to reach a solution amid crisis in Ukraine,
journalist Saskia van Westhreenen said in an article published in
the Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad on Tuesday, Trend reports citing Daily Sabah .
In a unique position due to its friendly relations with both
Russia and Ukraine, Turkey has won widespread praise for its push
to end the war and Erdogan recently met with the Ukrainian and
Russian delegations ahead of their meeting in Istanbul, which the
two sides hailed as“constructive.”
The journalist included remarks Erdogan made in his meeting with
the Ukrainian and Russian delegations before their talks in
Istanbul, quoting the president as saying:“The whole world is
waiting for the good news. We are ready to help you.”
“If it all works out, Erdogan could almost win a Nobel Peace
Prize with his current stance,” van Westhreenen noted, underlining
that Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte and U.S. President Joe Biden
are“far away from that.”
“And honestly, that's something to think about.”
