Russia urges Turkey to secure Ukraine pipeline guarantee

Russia has called on Turkey to secure guarantees from Ukraine against further attacks on gas transport infrastructure. Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko stated that Russia has repeatedly urged its Turkish partners to send 'clear, sobering signals' to Kyiv to halt what Moscow terms 'terrorist attacks' on pipelines. The Russian Foreign Ministry's statement frames Ukraine's actions as acts of aggression that must be stopped and prevented from recurring. This diplomatic pressure comes amid ongoing strikes on energy infrastructure in the region.
