Turkey's Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu has stated that Turkey cannot be blamed for Ukrainian military's use of Turkish-supplied armed drones against Russian-backed separatists in the conflict-ridden eastern Donbass region. "The drones may have been manufactured in Turkey but after their agreement of sale, they belong to Ukraine. They can not be referred as Turkish weapons," Cavusoglu told reporters on Saturday after a meeting with Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov on the sidelines of the G20 Leaders' Summit in Rome.
Kremlin said on Wednesday Turkish drones risked destabilising the situation in eastern Ukraine a day after Ukraine has footage on social media of its first-ever combat deployment of a Turkish Bayraktar TB2 armed drone to destroy a howitzer used by pro-Russian separatists in the Donbass region.
