US EditionPutin proposes direct talks with Ukraine on May 15 in Turkey to end war
- On May 10, 2025, Vladimir Putin announced plans to resume direct negotiations with Ukraine on May 15 in Istanbul, aiming to end the ongoing three-year conflict.
- Putin framed the proposal as a response to Western humiliation after the Soviet Union's 1991 collapse and NATO's expansion into what he calls Moscow’s sphere of influence, while leaders from Europe and the U.S. Pressured Moscow to accept a 30-day ceasefire.
- The proposed talks aim to pick up from where they left off in Istanbul in 2022, focusing on addressing the underlying issues of the conflict and securing a lasting peace without any conditions.
- Putin announced that Russia is ready to engage in direct talks with Kyiv immediately, insisting these discussions should begin without any prior conditions. He suggested such negotiations could pave the way for new ceasefires and ultimately a lasting peace, while European leaders cautioned that Moscow could face extensive sanctions if it refuses to accept a 30-day truce.
- This development suggests a critical diplomatic effort backed by major powers to resolve a bloody conflict that has caused hundreds of thousands of deaths and heightened East-West tensions since 2022.
