Zelenskyy to Meet Putin in Turkey, Demands Ceasefire Starting Today

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accepted an invitation to hold peace talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Turkey this coming Thursday in an effort to end the conflict.
This meeting follows Ukraine and European allies demanding a 30-day unconditional ceasefire starting Monday, which Russia effectively rejected in favor of direct talks without preconditions.
Following the end of Russia’s announced three-day ceasefire, mass drone attacks resumed in Ukraine early Sunday, while Zelenskyy stated he was awaiting a definitive Russian response regarding the ceasefire.
Zelenskyy called Putin’s proposed talks a "positive sign" and expressed readiness to end the war, while Western leaders such as Macron described the offer as a "first step, but not enough."
The outcome remains uncertain as hostilities continue, but the planned talks aim to open dialogue and could potentially provide a basis for future diplomatic efforts.
