Erdogan begs Putin: Don't do it

The plea for an end to further escalations came after Moscow bombed facilities vital for grain deliveries from Ukraine, writes the Kyiv Post.

Erdogan was a key player in the now-collapsed deal that allowed Ukrainian grain shipments to pass safely through the Black Sea, and positioned himself as a mediator in the conflict.

The Turkish leader said that "no steps should be taken that would escalate tensions in the war between Russia and Ukraine."

He emphasized the importance of the agreement on grain, which he called a "bridge for peace", the Kyiv Post reports.

The agreement, brokered by Turkey and the United Nations, allowed Ukraine to export grain through its Black Sea ports, but it ended last month after Moscow withdrew from it.
