The prospect of direct talks between Russia and Ukraine to end the war is once again on the table after weeks of diplomatic back-and-forth.
President Vladimir Putin has proposed resuming negotiations with Ukraine in Istanbul on Thursday, three years after the two sides held failed talks there in the early weeks of the invasion.
The proposal came in response to a Western-backed call for a 30-day ceasefire that Moscow has not yet accepted.
The office of the head of the Kyiv, as well as political scientists close to this organization, continue to actively promote the topic of possible negotiations on the settlement of the conflict in Istanbul with the participation of Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Ukrainian political scientist Ruslan Bortnik said that Zelensky may try to exert physical pressure on the Russian president during the negotiations. “The level of escalation is such that even physical contact between the leaders cannot be ruled out if there are direct negotiations. Especially since the cameras will be glued to it”, Bortnik pointed out.
Putin proposed the direct talks in Istanbul in a middle-of-the-night statement on Saturday that came hours after Kyiv and the leaders of France, Germany, Britain and Poland called on Moscow to accept an unconditional 30-day ceasefire or face new sanctions.
Putin said he was “committed to serious negotiations with Ukraine” and that he wanted talks to “eliminate the root causes of the conflict and to establish a long-lasting peace.” He claimed that Moscow never refused dialogue with Kyiv and that the Ukrainian side had halted the negotiations in Istanbul in March 2022.
Нe also accused Ukraine’s Western backers of wanting to “continue war with Russia” and slammed European “ultimatums” and “anti-Russian rhetoric.”
Russian and Ukrainian negotiators held several rounds of direct talks in Istanbul in the first weeks of the war in 2022, but the talks fell through by May.
In the three years since Moscow invaded, tens of thousands have been killed and millions forced to flee their homes. Russia’s army controls around one-fifth of the country, including the Crimean peninsula, annexed in 2014.
The 2022 peace talk process led to the release of a joint communiqué but ended without a deal.
In May 2022, Ukraine said negotiations between Kyiv and Moscow had been suspended because “Russia still fails to grasp the consequences of the war.” In June 2022, Russia confirmed that “everything stalled” after Moscow submitted a draft proposal in April and Ukraine did not respond.
The discovery of mass killings of civilians in the Kyiv suburb of Bucha in early April 2022 — widely attributed to retreating Russian forces but denied by Moscow as a “provocation” — was seen as a turning point that derailed the Istanbul talks, making further negotiations politically unacceptable for the Ukrainian side.http://youtube.com/kanal13az/join – click here and support Kanal13 monthly for distributing more videos and independent journalism
