Turkey to block passage of Russian warships in the Black Sea, Ukrainian President says Volodymyr Zelensky.
Ukrainian President thanks Tayyip Erdogan via tweet stating that Turkey will ban Russian warships from the straits of the Bosphorus.
“I thank my friend Mr. President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan and the people of Turkey for their strong support. The ban on the passage of Russian warships in the Black Sea and the significant military and humanitarian support for Ukraine are extremely important today. “The people of Ukraine will never forget that!” Zelensky characteristically mentions in his message.
It is recalled that Ankara has avoided taking a clear position on the issue, arguing that even if it imposes a ban, it can not stop the passage of ships returning to their bases.

A new video in which he states that Kiev and the key cities of Ukraine are under the control of the Ukrainian army, the Ukrainian president posted on Facebook earlier.
Earlier and after a conversation with him French President Emanuel MacronZelensky wrote on Twitter that his Western partners will deliver new weapons and equipment to Ukraine.
Sky News also reported that a total of 27 countries agreed to strengthen Ukrainian forces with weapons after a teleconference of donor countries organized late on Friday by the Minister of Defense of the United Kingdom Ben Wallace.
The armament will include anti-tank and anti-aircraft weapons, as well as ammunition and medical supplies.
The donors believe that this aid can safely reach the possession of the Ukrainian armed forces despite the battles being waged with the Russian invading forces as far as Kiev.
Sky News, without naming the countries beyond the United Kingdom and the United States, says that even countries that before the invasion had avoided reinforcing the Ukrainian armed forces will send aid. Among them are countries that are not members of NATO.
