Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu says that his country does not want the situation with Russia to escalate. The comment came in response to yesterday's (Sunday) incident in which a Russian ship fired a warning shot at a Turkish fishing vessel.
According to Çavuşoğlu, Ankara will investigate the situation and will check the fishermen's version of the story before giving its official stance. He added: "We are not interested in tension, we want to overcome the tension through dialog."
