ANKARA (Reuters) - Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan's office said early on Tuesday that he held a phone call with his Belarusian counterpart Alexander Lukashenko to discuss developments in Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

The two premiers discussed ceasefire talks between Russia and Ukraine, according to Erdogan's office. The talks failed to reach a breakthrough on Monday, and negotiators have not said when a new round would take place.
