Negotiations in Istanbul: Ukraine will require Putin's meeting with Zelensky and ceasefire - Reuters

To spread: during the negotiations with the Russian side in Istanbul, the Ukrainian delegation will discuss the preparation of the meeting of the Presidents of Ukraine and Russia Vladimir Putin and Vladimir Zelensky. This was reported by the source of Reuters. Ukraine will make a ceasefire a priority in the expected negotiations with the Russian delegation in Istanbul. "Increasing trust measures" are also needed. "We understand that any effective diplomacy requires ceasefire.

Real, strong and carefully controlled," the interlocutor said. In his opinion, humanitarian measures are also needed to strengthen trust. This includes the return of Ukrainian children, detained civilians and exchange of prisoners of war on the principle of "all on all". It should be noted that a tripartite meeting of the United States, Turkey and Ukraine has already taken place in Istanbul.

The states were attended by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Presidential Special Specialist Kit Kellogg and US Ambassador to Turkey Thomas Barrak.
