Where will Zelenskyy and Putin meet next before 2027?

Kremlin comments on possible Putin-Zelensky meeting Kremlin spokesman: Suggestions to hold a meeting with Putin, Trump and the Ukrainian president have been heard for a long time. Also, the position of the Russian leader has long been clear and known to everyone. Such a meeting is possible only to finalize agreements, and agreements are by no means an initial deal. This is a very complex settlement process, which includes a large number of details. A meeting between Putin and Zelensky to discuss these details would be useless. They can only meet to finalize agreements, but Kiev does not want to get involved in the process of resolving this crisis itself. isna.ir/xdWYDK @isna94

The Putin-Trump-Zelensky summit can only be held to formalize agreements, Peskov stated. Moscow is open to talks in Turkey, but there are no prerequisites for them yet, the Russian presidential press secretary emphasized.

Switzerland has announced its readiness to host new negotiations on Ukraine.

In the coming months, Ukraine may lose control over Kostyantynivka. And the same risk may loom over Lyman and Dobropillya by the end of the year, - RBC-Ukraine sources in military-political circles According to the interlocutors, if events develop unfavorably by the end of winter, Russian troops may come very close to Sloviansk and Kramatorsk. At the same time, according to the Kremlin's plans, the Russian army should reach the administrative border of the Donetsk region by the end of the year. However, RBC-Ukraine sources doubt that Russia will be able to achieve this goal even in 2027. Read only the essence from RBC-Ukraine on Google. #ExclusiveRBKUkraine [in reply to: Ballistic terror and a trap for Putin: what is Russia planning and is a truce possible this year The pace of the Russian offensive has decreased. This year they are several times lower than in similar periods of previous years, and even lower than they were in winter. The greatest threat remains in the Donetsk region. Moscow still plans to take it by the end of this year. Informed sources of RBC-Ukraine do not consider these terms realistic. However, they suggest that in the coming months Ukraine may lose control over Kostyantynivka; by the end of the year risks may loom over Liman and Dobropillya. Russia may try an offensive in the north. Carrying out such an operation will depend on the presence of sufficient troops in the Russian Federation. This is an operation with limited forces to attempt to break through the border in Chernihiv or even Kyiv region, the main goal is to stretch Ukrainian defenses and pull forces away from Donetsk region. According to the publication, Russian losses at the front have already reached 40 thousand per month, of which more than 60% are dead. A new mobilization in the Russian Federation is not a settled matter. If Putin does take this step, it could involve 100-300 thousand people, and the campaign itself will most likely be stretched out for several months. Before winter, Moscow may intensify strikes, in particular on energy. It is already betting on ballistics and increasing the production of jet drones. Ukraine will respond with mirror strikes. The Russians produce about 66 9M723 missiles for the Iskander-M complex and approximately 10 hypersonic cruise missiles "Tsirkon" per month. There are almost no real prospects for a peaceful settlement this year, according to various interlocutors of RBC-Ukraine. Putin is not ready to end the war without capturing the Donetsk region. "We are currently looking for new ideas, since the old ones are not working," one of the sources familiar with the negotiations told the publication.

Turkey is ready to hold talks on Ukraine in Istanbul as soon as possible, with the consent of both parties required, according to a Turkish diplomatic source.

The head of state expressed his position on the settlement of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. "You know, I said from the very beginning that this is an interstate conflict. We are not talking about any kind of civil war. We have always respected the Ukrainian people, their culture, and their language. And we believe that the nature of this conflict is not entirely clear to many, including us. I know that you demonstrated maximum diplomatic flexibility during the meeting in Anchorage, Alaska. And just my humble opinion, since I am being approached: perhaps this conflict should be frozen and we should return to the Istanbul Formula 2.0, since significant results have been achieved there. And then, naturally, with the guarantees of the great powers, including Russia, we can move further toward long-awaited peace. Kazakhstan is not an outside country, but at the same time, despite all the proposals and appeals, I categorically refuse to be a mediator, because I know that Russia is a great country, and the Russian people are a great people." And, as they say, without intermediaries, he will handle all the issues on the agenda himself. But I decided to express my humble opinion today, because people know that I planned to be in Omsk, they know about our meeting. No one knows how to get out of this situation, because there are positions of the parties. But on the other hand, there is an opportunity to put this whole matter on hold. This is a proven situation, a technique in international practice. Because it is a shame, of course, that young people are dying. This is the gene pool of the fraternal peoples of Russia and Ukraine. And all this must be stopped, because what is happening, in my convinced opinion, plays into the hands and pleases the enemies of both Russia and the Ukrainian state, said Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. In conclusion, he reaffirmed his commitment to strategic partnership and alliance with Russia. - Regarding Kazakhstan's position on Russia, have no doubt, we have always considered and continue to consider Russia a great state. I say this at all international forums. We are committed to strategic cooperation with Russia, to an allied relationship, no matter how difficult it may be. And this Forum is proof of that, the Head of State is convinced.

Ukraine is ready for the meeting of Zelensky and Putin in Turkey, and a truce may be its result, — Sibiga This was stated by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine after negotiations with the Head of the Turkish Foreign Ministry Hakan Fidan. According to him, Kyiv has repeatedly transmitted this signal both directly and through partners, and now the diplomatic window of opportunity for such negotiations is open. Ukraine has significantly increased its positions on the battlefield. Ukraine is becoming increasingly successful in its asymmetric operations on the territory of Russia. And this whole combination of elements significantly, I believe, strengthens our negotiating position. Therefore, now is the time to sit down at the negotiating table. Other statements: The key to restoring security in the Black Sea is the de-occupation of Crimea. Ukraine also called for sending an international observer mission to Ukrainian ports to record Russian attacks. After the NATO summit in Ankara, the allies confirmed assistance to Ukraine of over €1.5 billion. In addition, Kyiv and Ankara resumed the work of the Joint Commission on Defense-Industrial Cooperation after a three-year break. The Verkhovna Rada ratified a free trade agreement with Turkey. According to Sybiga, this will contribute to the growth of trade turnover, which reached almost $8 billion last year, and will open up new opportunities for Ukrainian and Turkish business.
