Putin Picks NATO Nation For Peace Talks | Shocking Reason Behind Russian President's Strange Choice

Russian President Vladimir Putin has endorsed Slovakia as a neutral venue for potential peace talks to resolve the Ukraine conflict.

In a significant divergence from other EU nations, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has maintained a stance against supplying arms to Ukraine, positioning Slovakia as a possible mediator.

Meanwhile, Putin remains firm on the “territorial realities” that Ukraine must accept, including the loss of key regions.

As the world speculates on the future of negotiations, can Slovakia bring both sides to the table, or is this move another strategic play by Moscow?

Russia Strikes Chernobyl as per Claims by Zelensky.Ukraine has accused Russia of launching a drone strike on the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, claiming the attack damaged the protective shelter over Reactor 4—the site of the infamous 1986 disaster. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky shared dramatic footage of the explosion, warning that Moscow is “not preparing for negotiations but for continued deception.” However, the Kremlin has dismissed the claims as a “provocation,” stating that Russia does not target Ukraine’s nuclear infrastructure.
