Reuters: Ukraine hails Turkey drone deal, Erdogan offer to mediate in Russia standoff
KYIV (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Thursday welcomed an offer from visiting Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan to mediate in Kyiv's standoff with Moscow, and Erdogan promised to do whatever he could to end the crisis peacefully.
In a move likely to grate with Moscow, Zelenskiy also trumpeted a deal enabling Ukrainian factories to produce Turkish drones that have already been deployed in Ukraine's war against Russia-backed rebels in its eastern Donbass region.

You can bet your bottom lira that Erdogan wants Crimea back.
