According to a statement by Turkey's Communications Directorate, the Erdoğan-Biden conversation will be held at 1530GMT.

The phone call is announced amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, which has drawn international condemnation and led to severe financial sanctions from many countries, including the US, on Moscow.
