US official also confirms Donald Trump will no longer attend
Peace talks between Russia and Ukraine remain up in the air as president Vladimir Putin is notably absent from Russia’s inperson delegation list and US leader Donald Trump has announced he will no longer go to the Turkey summit either.
A US official said that Mr Trump would no longer join the talks in Istanbul, having previously toyed with the idea of going if Putin was attending.
Russia announced their delegation list last night and the list did not include Putin’s name. Instead, the delegation included his adviser Vladimir Medinsky, deputy defence minister Alexander Fomin, and Igor Kostyukov, director of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the GRU (Russia’s military intelligence agency). Foreign minister Sergey Lavrov is also notably absent from the list.
