Important negotiations regarding security in the Black Sea are currently underway in Turkey. These talks are taking place at a military level with the participation of representatives from the "Coalition of the Willing" – the United Kingdom and France.

Details: According to Zelensky, there is a military meeting in Turkey focused on Black Sea security that primarily concerns the "Coalition of the Willing".

"For the past two days, we have been discussing this on the platform of our Turkish colleagues. They have invited representatives from those who represent Europe, as was the case at the Paris summit – the UK, France, with Ukraine being present, and the host country – Turkey," he added.

The Turkish Ministry of Defense previously announced that on April 15-16 a meeting would take place in the country to discuss Black Sea security in light of a potential ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia.

Although Turkish media previously reported that Russian representatives would be present at the meeting, Ankara denied this information.

Recall that following negotiations in Saudi Arabia from March 23-25, the USA, Russia, and Ukraine agreed to discuss ensuring maritime security in the Black Sea.

However, after that, Russia presented a list of demands, including the easing of certain sanctions against the agricultural sector. The USA stated that they would review these demands, while Europe rejected the easing of sanctions.
