Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan accuses NATO and the European Union of failing to take a “determined stance” on the Russian invasion of Ukraine. 

“NATO should have taken a more decisive step,” Erdogan, whose country is a member of the military alliance, tells reporters. 

“The EU and other pro-Western [bodies] have failed to take a serious and determined stance at the moment. They are all providing Ukraine with plenty of advice.”
