ISTANBUL (AA) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday met with personnel of his country’s navy amid an official visit to the Turkish metropolitan city of Istanbul.

“Visit to Türkiye. Istanbul. Shipyards where corvettes are built for our Navy. I inspected the readiness and equipment of the Ivan Mazepa corvette and spoke with Ukrainian Navy personnel,” Zelenskyy said in a statement on X.

Zelenskyy further said that he inspected the construction of his country’s second corvette of the Ada class, adding that he named it after Hetman Ivan Vyhovskyi, a Ukrainian military and political figure from the 17th century.

“I thank Türkiye's President (Recep Tayyip Erdogan) and all Turkish and Ukrainian defense companies for their partnership and for working together to bring peace closer and make it a lasting one,” he added.

Zelenskyy arrived on an official visit to Türkiye earlier in the day, together with a delegation that also included Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov.
