Zelensky, Erdogan to meet in Istanbul
President Volodymyr Zelensky will meet with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Istanbul on July 7, the Turkish Presidency’s Directorate of Communications wrote.

"Together with our reliable neighbor, we are talking about concrete defense support, the Euro-Atlantic integration of Ukraine, the NATO Summit, the Peace Formula, bilateral cooperation, and energy security," Zelensky wrote on social media.

Ahead of the next NATO summit in Vilnius, Kyiv is actively seeking to mobilize additional support for Ukraine's membership bid. Ukraine hopes to receive a "clear signal" from allies regarding its membership prospects at the summit, set to take place on July 11-12.

Zelensky is also set to meet with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Istanbul later on July 7, according to the Turkish Presidency's Directorate of Communications.
