Let us recall

Vladimir Putin said that Russia is ready to resume peace talks with Ukraine on May 15 in Istanbul.

The Kremlin repeats its demands for Ukraine: the only way to peace is to fully satisfy Russia's needs. Putin demands the removal of the pro-Western government and Ukraine's renunciation of joining NATO.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that he expects a ceasefire from Russia from May 12 and will personally wait for Putin in Turkey on May 15.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine doubts that Putin will agree to negotiations with Zelenskyy in Turkey on May 15. Sybiha considers it unlikely that Russia will have enough courage.
