Turkey on January 14 said it was ready to push for local cease-fires in Ukraine and warned that neither Moscow nor Kyiv had the military means to "win the war." President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's foreign policy adviser Ibrahim Kalin conceded it seemed unlikely the warring sides were ready to strike an "overarching peace deal" in the coming months. But he said that the brutal cost of fighting might soon see them reconsider and accept localized truces in specific parts of the war zone. NATO member Turkey hosted two early rounds of peace talks between Ukraine and Russia.
