President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated on May 11 that he expects a ceasefire from Russia and that he will personally wait for Vladimir Putin in Turkey on May 15. But he said he would not negotiate with any representative of Russia except Putin himself.
On the night of May 15, the Kremlin announced the participants of the Russian delegation to the negotiations in Turkey, but the level was even lower than expected, when the media reported that the meeting may be attended by the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Sergey Lavrov. Putin in the Kremlin was also not listed as a participant in the negotiations in Turkey, scheduled for Thursday, despite the fact that he himself proposed it.
