What to know about possible Russia-Ukraine peace talks in Turkey

  • Amid the ongoing conflict entering its fourth year, Russian President Vladimir Putin suggested resuming face-to-face negotiations with Ukraine during talks held in Istanbul on Thursday.
  • Putin’s offer follows Kyiv’s refusal to accept Moscow’s demands, including recognition of Russian control over Donbas and Crimea, renouncing NATO, and reducing Ukraine’s military.
  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy challenged Putin to meet in Turkey in person while hosting European leaders who called for a 30-day ceasefire starting Monday.
  • Zelenskyy said he will wait in Ankara to meet Turkish President Erdogan and only sit with Putin in Istanbul, warning that if Putin fails to show, he does not want peace.
  • Although previous talks in Istanbul in 2022 quickly collapsed, leaders remain focused on ending Russia’s full-scale invasion, with sanctions planned if peace negotiations fail.
