He suggested to Erdogan to stop being "neutral" and intervene in the conflict, as everyone respects him

The US President during a meeting with Turkish leader Recep Erdogan at the White House stated that Vladimir Putin "must stop." "Russia has practically not captured any territory. They have spent millions on bombs and missiles," added Trump.

He also stated that Erdogan is respected by both Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Vladimir Putin, and in light of this, the Turkish president could "have a great influence if he wants," but he prefers to "be neutral." Trump suggested that Turkey stop buying oil from Russia while it continues its aggression against Ukraine.

"He likes being neutral. I also like being neutral. But if he decided to intervene, the best thing he could do is stop buying oil and gas from Russia," stated the US President.
