Putin, Trump, Zelensky, Erdogan to discuss peace in Ukraine? Turkey pitches summit, Kremlin rejects

Turkey is pushing for a high-level Trump-Putin-Zelenskyy summit to cap the ongoing Istanbul peace talks on Ukraine. Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, in Kyiv to meet Zelenskyy, claims the war could end in 2025 if all sides commit to talks and a lasting cease-fire. While Ukraine demands advance proposals and a full cease-fire, Russia insists on presenting terms in person. The U.S. threatens to disengage if Moscow resists progress, and Trump’s 30-day truce initiative remains stalled amid territorial disputes. #UkraineWar #PeaceTalks #IstanbulSummit #TurkeyDiplomacy #Zelenskyy #Putin #Trump #CeasefireNow #RussiaUkraineConflict #HakanFidan #UkrainePeaceDeal #GlobalDiplomacy #Geopolitics #IstanbulTalks #UkraineCrisis #RussiaDemands #TerritorialDispute #Peace2025 #TrumpPeacePlan #UkraineNews #PutinZelenskyy #TurkeyMediation #Kremlin #USWarning #CeasefireTalks #UkraineRussiaSummit #UkraineUpdate #PutinProposal #TrumpInitiative #WarResolution #PeaceEffort Also Read Erdogan Reaffirms Support For Islamabad Amid India Tensions: 'Long live Pakistan-Turkiye Friendship' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/erdogan-reaffirms-support-for-islamabad-amid-india-tensions-long-live-pakistan-turkiye-friendship-4163705.html?ref=DMDesc India Slams Turkey For Backing Pak, Urges Action Against Cross-Border Terrorism: 'Relations Are Built On...' :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-slams-turkey-for-backing-pak-urges-action-against-cross-border-terrorism-relations-are-buil-4160853.html?ref=DMDesc Bengaluru’s Wholesale Cloth Merchants Halt Imports from Turkey, Azerbaijan Amid National Outrage :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/bengaluru-s-wholesale-cloth-merchants-halt-imports-from-turkey-azerbaijan-amid-national-outrage-4156025.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.336~GR.124~

Kyiv’s Memorandum Demands REVEALED But Russia Fails to Reveal its Promised Memorandum | Peace Talks [Video]

Kyiv’s Memorandum Demands REVEALED But Russia Fails to Reveal its Promised Memorandum | Peace Talks

Ukraine has accused Russia of stalling peace negotiations by withholding a promised memorandum ahead of proposed Istanbul talks. Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha warned that Ukraine won't attend without seeing the terms first, fearing a diplomatic ambush. The Kremlin insists its terms will be presented only at the table, while Kyiv seeks a cease-fire as the first step. With rising battlefield tensions and behind-the-scenes U.S. diplomacy, the looming talks remain uncertain. Trump’s envoy urged Ukraine to “show up,” even without clarity—raising serious doubts about Russia’s intentions and the talks’ credibility. #ukraine #russia #war #peaceprocess #istanbultalks #putin #zelensky #ceasefire #ukrainerussiawar #nato #diplomacy #russianmemorandum #andriisybiha #kremlin #moscow #trump #trumpspecialenvoy #kellogg #peaceplan Also Read Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif Says Ready To Talk With India On All Disputes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-pm-shehbaz-sharif-says-ready-to-talk-with-india-on-all-disputes-4164725.html?ref=DMDesc Telangana CM Revanth Reddy Meets K.

Will Ukraine accept Russia's PEACE talks invite? Russian delegation awaits |Breakthrough soon? [Video]

Will Ukraine accept Russia's PEACE talks invite? Russian delegation awaits |Breakthrough soon?

A Russian delegation led by Vladimir Medinsky is en route to Istanbul for proposed peace talks with Ukraine on June 2. While Moscow expresses hope, Ukraine remains skeptical, demanding immediate delivery of Russia’s ceasefire draft and calling Russia’s silence a stalling tactic. Kyiv insists it already sent its own draft and had earlier demanded a 30-day truce—rejected by Russia. With tensions high, accusations mounting, and delegations unchanged, the possibility of a real breakthrough appears increasingly remote. #RussiaUkraineWar #PeaceTalks #IstanbulMeeting #UkraineCrisis #RussiaDelegation #VladimirMedinsky #Ceasefire #DiplomaticTensions #LavrovProposal #UkraineDemands #Kyiv #Moscow #PutinZelensky #TruceTalks #Stalemate #GlobalDiplomacy #RussiaUkraineConflict #UkraineWarNews #RussiaUkrainePeace #Geopolitics #RoundTwoTalks #NoBreakthrough #UkraineResponse #ConflictResolution #UkraineRussia2025 #CeasefireDraft #Zelensky #PutinSkipped #MedinskyLeads #UnchangedDelegation Also Read Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif Says Ready To Talk With India On All Disputes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-pm-shehbaz-sharif-says-ready-to-talk-with-india-on-all-disputes-4164725.html?ref=DMDesc West Pitching China-India Against Each Other: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/west-pitching-china-india-against-each-other-russian-foreign-minister-sergei-lavrov-4155227.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.103~GR.124~

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor clarified India’s position on third-party mediation amid Operation Sindoor. He revealed that several global powers—including the U.S., France, UAE, and Saudi Arabia—reached out following India’s retaliatory strikes. Tharoor emphasized that India is not seeking war, but acted against terrorism. Any message relayed to Pakistan was indirect, not part of a formal mediation process. Tharoor reaffirmed that India never initiated aggression, maintaining a clear stance: “If they stop, we stop.” #OperationSindoor #IndiaPakistan #ShashiTharoor #NoMediation #AntiTerrorStrike #IndiaStandsFirm #PakistanTerror #TharoorStatement #IndiaForeignPolicy #WarOnTerror #IndiaNews #GlobalDiplomacy #NoToWar #IndianArmy #IndiaDefence #UAE #USIndiaRelations #France #SaudiArabia #IndiaPeace #SecurityFirst #RetaliationNotWar #IndiaResponds #IndiaPakistanTensions #IndiaSpeaks #BreakingNews #ANI #PeaceNotWar #IndiaInFocus #GeoPolitics #TerrorResponse Also Read Congress Vs Shashi Tharoor Strife Deepens: Party Says He's Part Of Family, MP Hits Out At Critics :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/congress-vs-shashi-tharoor-strife-deepens-party-says-hes-part-of-family-mp-hits-out-at-critics-4167287.html?ref=DMDesc Multi-Party Indian Delegation In Guyana Backs Tharoor’s Tough Message On Terrorism :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/multi-party-indian-delegation-in-guyana-backs-tharoor-s-tough-message-on-terrorism-4164031.html?ref=DMDesc Shashi Tharoor Says 'I Don't Work For Govt', Backs Operation Sindoor As India's Response To Pahalgam Attack :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/shashi-tharoor-says-i-dont-work-for-govt-backs-operation-sindoor-as-indias-response-to-pahalgam-4163119.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~

Gulf Royals Begged Trump to Halt Iran Strike? MBS, MBZ, Emir Tamim Warned Trump About War With Iran [Video]

Gulf Royals Begged Trump to Halt Iran Strike? MBS, MBZ, Emir Tamim Warned Trump About War With Iran

In a dramatic diplomatic twist, Gulf powerhouses Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar reportedly urged President Trump to stand down from launching a military strike on Iran. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed (MBZ), and Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani warned that such action could provoke devastating Iranian retaliation—especially against U.S. bases on Gulf soil. As fears of regional chaos mounted, the Gulf leaders pushed Trump toward diplomacy and a new nuclear deal instead of confrontation. Trump, meanwhile, told Israeli PM Netanyahu to hold back on unilateral action and hinted that a “very strong document” with Iran could be signed soon. #Trump #IranStrike #MBS #MBZ #EmirTamim #GulfDiplomacy #MiddleEastCrisis #TrumpIranTensions #SaudiArabia #UAE #Qatar #IranDeal #TrumpForeignPolicy #NoWarWithIran #GulfStates Also Read Appeals Court Allows Trump To Continue Collecting Tariffs Under Emergency Powers Law For Now :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/appeals-court-allows-trump-to-continue-collecting-tariffs-under-emergency-powers-law-for-now-4167703.html?ref=DMDesc Harvard Granted One Month Extension In Trump Dispute Over International Student Ban: Reports :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-granted-one-month-extension-in-trump-dispute-over-international-student-ban-reports-4167515.html?ref=DMDesc Elon Musk Exits Trump Administration After Slamming ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ on His Way Out :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-exits-trump-administration-after-slamming-big-beautiful-bill-on-his-way-out-4166709.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~
