Russia and Ukraine to meet in Istanbul
The Freeman
|May 17, 2025
Delegations from Moscow and Kyiv are in Istanbul Friday, where they plan to hold their first direct peace talks since 2022, but the absence of presidents Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky leaves little hope for progress in ending the war.
-
Turkey said a tripartite meeting between Russian, Ukrainian and Turkish officials will take place at 12:30 pm local time (0930 GMT) at the Turkish presidency’s Dolmabahce Palace.
Turkish, US and Ukrainian officials are due to hold a meeting ahead of the talks, Ankara said.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who landed in Istanbul Friday morning, had earlier downplayed expectations for the peace talks, after Moscow sent a low-profile delegation and both sides traded insults ahead of the negotiations, initially slated for Thursday.
