On 7 June, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, President of Turkiye, held a telephone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Erdogan offered Zelenskyy to set up a commission involving "experts from the warring parties, the UN, and the international community, including Turkiye'' to conduct a "detailed investigation" into the explosion at the Kakhovka dam.
