In a dramatic turn after the collapse of the latest Russia-Ukraine peace talks in Istanbul, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio held a crucial phone call discussing the future of negotiations and potential ceasefire conditions. Lavrov welcomed Washington's “constructive” approach, while Rubio praised a proposed 1,000-for-1,000 POW exchange as a positive step. As both sides seek new diplomatic footing, speculation is mounting over a possible high-stakes meeting between Presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump to break the deadlock and chart a path toward ending the war. #RussiaUkraineTalks #PeaceInUkraine #LavrovRubio #IstanbulTalks #RussiaUkraineWar #CeasefireNow #PutinTrumpMeeting #UkraineCrisis #DiplomacyInAction #UkrainePeaceDeal #TurkeyMediation #RussiaUkraineUpdate #WarToPeace #IstanbulDiplomacy #POWExchange Also Read Putin Declares 'Easter Truce' In Russia-Ukraine War Amid US Proposal, Ceasefire To Stay Till Sunday Midnight :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/putin-declares-easter-truce-in-russia-ukraine-war-amid-us-proposal-to-stay-untill-sunday-midnight-4128473.html?ref=DMDesc US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc Russian Drone Strike Hits Indian Pharma Warehouse In Kyiv, Ukraine Accuses Moscow Of ‘Deliberate Targeting’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russian-drone-strike-hits-indian-pharma-warehouse-in-kyiv-ukraine-accuses-moscow-of-deliberate-tar-4122569.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.152~ED.102~

Kremlin Spokesman Peskov REVEALS Key Next Steps In Russia-Ukraine Talks Amid Ceasefire Hopes

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov revealed the next steps in Russia-Ukraine negotiations following recent talks. Both sides agreed to exchange detailed lists of ceasefire conditions, but no Putin-Zelensky meeting will occur until concrete agreements are reached.

Zelensky, Macron, Starmer Call Trump After Istanbul Talks Collapse; West Rattled by Putin’s Demands? [Video]

Zelensky, Macron, Starmer Call Trump After Istanbul Talks Collapse; West Rattled by Putin’s Demands?

Zelensky, alongside French President Emmanuel Macron and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, held a high-level phone call with Donald Trump on May 16. The emergency dialogue came as Russia refused a ceasefire and demanded full Ukrainian withdrawal from key regions it doesn't entirely control — Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson. While Ukraine, led by Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, pushed for genuine negotiations, Putin declined direct talks and sent aide Vladimir Medinsky instead. The only breakthrough: a 1,000-for-1,000 prisoner of war swap. #ZelenskyVsPutin #IstanbulTalks #PutinAfraid #UkraineWar #PeaceTalksFail #ZelenskyStatement #RussiaUkraineCrisis #PutinNoShow #EUUnited #TrumpCall #CeasefireNow #UkraineStandsStrong #ShamDelegation #PressureOnRussia #DiplomacyDeadlock Also Read Putin Declares 'Easter Truce' In Russia-Ukraine War Amid US Proposal, Ceasefire To Stay Till Sunday Midnight :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/putin-declares-easter-truce-in-russia-ukraine-war-amid-us-proposal-to-stay-untill-sunday-midnight-4128473.html?ref=DMDesc US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc Russian Drone Strike Hits Indian Pharma Warehouse In Kyiv, Ukraine Accuses Moscow Of ‘Deliberate Targeting’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russian-drone-strike-hits-indian-pharma-warehouse-in-kyiv-ukraine-accuses-moscow-of-deliberate-tar-4122569.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.152~ED.420~GR.124~

Zelensky Humiliates Putin, Calls Him ‘Afraid’ In Front Of EU Leaders As Istanbul Talks Collapse

Zelensky delivered a stunning rebuke to Russian President Vladimir Putin, accusing him of being "afraid" to attend critical peace talks in Turkey. Speaking after the Istanbul summit collapsed with no major breakthroughs, Zelensky told European leaders—including French President Emmanuel Macron, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz—that he was ready for a face-to-face meeting, but Putin chose to hide behind subordinates. #ZelenskyVsPutin #IstanbulTalks #PutinAfraid #UkraineWar #PeaceTalksFail #ZelenskyStatement #RussiaUkraineCrisis #PutinNoShow #EUUnited #TrumpCall #CeasefireNow #UkraineStandsStrong #ShamDelegation #PressureOnRussia #DiplomacyDeadlock Also Read Putin Declares 'Easter Truce' In Russia-Ukraine War Amid US Proposal, Ceasefire To Stay Till Sunday Midnight :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/putin-declares-easter-truce-in-russia-ukraine-war-amid-us-proposal-to-stay-untill-sunday-midnight-4128473.html?ref=DMDesc US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc Russian Drone Strike Hits Indian Pharma Warehouse In Kyiv, Ukraine Accuses Moscow Of ‘Deliberate Targeting’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russian-drone-strike-hits-indian-pharma-warehouse-in-kyiv-ukraine-accuses-moscow-of-deliberate-tar-4122569.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.152~ED.420~GR.124~

Pope Leo XIV Meets Zelensky at Inauguration Mass | 1st American Pope Vows to end Russian-Ukraine War

In a historic and politically charged moment at the Vatican, Pope Leo XIV, the first American pontiff, shook hands with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and First Lady Olena Zelenska as his inaugural Mass drew to a close. But the gesture was more than ceremonial. In his first global address, Pope Leo XIV vowed to make “every effort” to help end the war in Ukraine and later condemned the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, saying people had been “reduced to famine.” World leaders—including U.S. Vice President JD Vance, UK Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner, and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney—looked on as faith and geopolitics collided in St. Peter’s Square. Is the new pope signaling a bold new era of Vatican diplomacy? Can faith intervene where politics has failed? #PopeLeoXIV #Zelensky #Vatican2025 #PapalInauguration #UkraineWar #GazaCrisis #CatholicChurch #FaithAndPolitics #FirstAmericanPope #JDVance #StPetersSquare #VaticanNews #WorldLeaders #PopeAndPeace #HumanitarianCrisis #ReligionAndGeopolitics ~HT.410~PR.274~ED.102~GR.124~

U.S. President Donald Trump has lashed out at Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky, calling him “the greatest salesman in the world” and accusing him of walking away from Washington with massive aid packages. In a new interview, Trump said he hated to see billions “pissed away” on Ukraine and questioned where the money went. With Congress growing skeptical, Trump also highlighted how Zelensky’s influence has waned. The remarks come just as Russia and Ukraine agreed to a major prisoner swap during their first direct peace talks in three years. #Trump #Zelensky #UkraineAid #USPolitics #RussiaUkraineWar #MilitaryAid #BidenAdministration #Congress #UkraineFunding #VladimirPutin #TrumpInterview #UkraineWar #ZelenskySpeech #FoxNews #TrumpOnUkraine #PeaceTalks #GOP #UkraineConflict #USForeignPolicy #TrumpVsZelensky Also Read Trump Declares Columbus Day Will Remain Unchanged Amid Indigenous Peoples Day Recognition :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reinstates-columbus-day-amid-indigenous-peoples-day-debate-011-4136967.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Considers Temporary Exemption from Auto Tariffs to Aid Car Manufacturers Amid Economic Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-considers-temporary-exemption-auto-tariffs-011-4124041.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Dismisses General Tim Haugh from National Security Agency Amidst Congressional Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-fires-general-tim-haugh-national-security-agency-011-4115013.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.103~HT.336~GR.124~
