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~

‘France leading West’s PARTY OF WAR’ | Kremlin hits back at Macron’s call for more sanctions

Russia has slammed French President Emmanuel Macron, accusing him of leading a “party of war” in NATO and the EU after he backed tougher sanctions on Moscow over the Ukraine conflict. The Kremlin says France is escalating hybrid warfare and blocking diplomacy by sending Mirage 2000 jets to Kyiv. Kremlin spokesperson Zakharova condemned the sanctions as an illegitimate trade war.
