Who Is Vladimir Medinsky? Putin Skips Ukraine Talks In Istanbul, Names Nationalist Aide As Lead

Vladimir Putin will not attend the high-stakes Russia-Ukraine talks in Istanbul.

Instead, Kremlin aide and nationalist figure Vladimir Medinsky will lead the Russian delegation, reigniting debate over Russia's negotiation sincerity.

Medinsky, known for his controversial historical views, previously led failed 2022 talks with Ukraine.

Ukrainian President Zelensky insists only Putin’s presence signals real intent.

He refuses to meet lower-tier officials.

Meanwhile, Trump is also expected to skip the event.

The absence of top leaders adds doubt over whether Istanbul's negotiations will yield any breakthrough in the ongoing war.

Ukraine Delays POW Exchange And Bodies Transfer Despite Istanbul Deal, Russia ‘Furious’ Over Move

Ukraine has unexpectedly postponed a planned exchange of prisoners of war and bodies of fallen soldiers, despite agreements reached during negotiations in Istanbul. Russian envoy Vladimir Medinsky stated that Kyiv failed to send its delegation or provide a finalized list of POWs, leaving thousands of Ukrainian soldiers’ bodies in cold storage. Russia, claiming full readiness to proceed, released footage of the frozen remains awaiting transfer. The delay, said to be “for an indefinite period,” has drawn criticism for depriving families of proper burials and violating earlier commitments. #UkraineRussia #POWexchange #BodiesTransfer #IstanbulAgreement #Zelensky #Medinsky #WarDead #MilitaryBurial #UkraineDelay #HumanitarianCrisis #FrozenBodies #PrisonersOfWar #UkraineConflict #RussiaUkraine #NoDelegation #UnfulfilledAgreements #EasternFront #ColdStorage #MilitaryDeadlock #WarNegotiations Also Read Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc Ukrainian Ex-DJ Named As Alleged 'Mastermind' Of Russia Airbase Drone Attacks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukrainian-ex-dj-named-as-alleged-mastermind-of-russia-airbase-drone-attacks-4171927.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Hits Russia's Crimea Bridge Using 1,100 Kilograms Of Explosives :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-hits-russias-crimea-bridge-using-1-100-kilograms-of-explosives-4171479.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~

Zelensky Blasts Putin’s ‘Idiot’ Proposal to Swap Dead Soldiers; Calls Russia’s Ceasefire Plan a Sham

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky launched a scathing attack on Russia's proposal for a short-term ceasefire aimed at recovering bodies from the battlefield, calling it a sham and labeling the Russian delegation “idiots.” The remarks came after the second round of peace talks in Türkiye, where Russia's lead negotiator Vladimir Medinsky suggested a 2–3 day truce for humanitarian reasons. Zelensky dismissed the idea, arguing that Russia continues to bombard Ukraine with hundreds of drones and missiles nightly. #RussiaUkraineWar #UkraineRussiaConflict #RussiaUkrainePeaceTalks #ZelenskyVsPutin #CeasefireTalks #UkraineWarNews #RussiaUkraineUpdate #PeaceTalksIstanbul #UkraineUnderAttack #PutinWarPlans #RussiaStrikesUkraine #UkraineDefends #TurkiyePeaceTalks #UkraineCrisis #NoCeasefireDeal Also Read How Ukraine's 'Operation Spider's Web' Struck Deep Into Russia, Targeted Strategic Airbases :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/how-ukraines-operation-spiders-web-struck-deep-into-russia-targeted-strategic-airbases-4170093.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Claims Massive Drone Strike Destroyed 40 Warplanes Deep Inside Russia, Strategic Bombers Damaged :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-claims-massive-drone-strike-destroyed-40-warplanes-deep-inside-russia-strategic-bombers-dam-4169967.html?ref=DMDesc 'Something Happened To This Guy': Trump Slams Putin For Russia's Fresh Attack On Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/something-happened-to-this-guy-trump-slams-putin-for-russias-fresh-attack-on-ukraine-4163675.html?ref=DMDesc

Russia-Ukraine Peace talks END in just an hour | Heightened Tensions, No breakthrough; WWIII Next?

The second round of Russia-Europe peace talks in Istanbul ended in just over an hour, achieving no breakthrough. Led by Vladimir Medinsky and Rustem Umerov, the Russian and Ukrainian delegations sat across a U-shaped table, mediated by Turkey. Despite plans to exchange ceasefire terms, both sides remained sharply divided. Ukraine submitted a list of deported children and announced a new POW release. The talks occurred amid rising tensions following Ukraine’s Operation “Spider’s Web” and Russia’s threats to deploy nuclear-capable Oreshnik missiles. #RussiaUkraineWar #PeaceTalks #IstanbulTalks #VladimirMedinsky #RustemUmerov #TurkeyMediator #SpiderWebOperation #OreshnikMissile #UkraineWar #CeasefireTalks #WarInEurope #DeportedChildren #POWExchange #NuclearTensions #UkraineStrikes #RussiaResponse #Geopolitics #DiplomaticStalemate #BreakingNews #WarDiplomacy #PeaceEffortsFail #NuclearThreat #OreshnikAlert #Zelensky #UkraineRussia #GlobalTensions #WWIIIConcerns #StalemateInIstanbul #TurkeyMediation #RussiaVsUkraine ~ED.194~HT.336~

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~

Russia MOCKS Trump’s ‘Ultimatum’ | Lavrov Laughs at 100% Tariffs & U.S.-EU Weapons Push for Ukraine [Video]

Russia MOCKS Trump’s ‘Ultimatum’ | Lavrov Laughs at 100% Tariffs & U.S.-EU Weapons Push for Ukraine

A fierce war of words has erupted between the United States and Russia after former US President Donald Trump threatened to impose "secondary tariffs" of up to 100% if Moscow does not end the war in Ukraine within 50 days. Trump, speaking at a White House press event, warned that he was "very unhappy" with the ongoing conflict and that severe economic consequences would follow. Responding to the threat, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov delivered a sharp and dismissive rebuke from China. Lavrov stated unequivocally, "We are not worried, it's not our job to worry," indicating that Russia is prepared to withstand any new sanctions. He further mocked Trump's timeline, pointing out the shifting deadlines from the US. "Now it's 50 days, it used to be 24 hours, also 100 days. We've been through that already," Lavrov commented, suggesting a lack of seriousness in the American threat. The defiant stance was echoed by Russian Deputy Minister Ryabkov, who asserted that "any attempts to make demands or ultimatums are unacceptable" to the Kremlin. This bold response comes even as the United States finalizes plans to supply more advanced weaponry to Ukraine, with funding provided by the European Union. Russia's confidence appears unshaken, escalating geopolitical tensions and leaving the world to wonder what Trump's next move will be in this high-stakes standoff. #Trump #Russia #UkraineWar #SergeiLavrov #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Geopolitics #USTariffs #OneindiaNews #USRussiaRelations Also Read Can You Hit Moscow?

In a dramatic shift, U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to consider striking Moscow—just days after a failed phone call with Vladimir Putin. Sources told the Financial Times and Washington Post that Trump asked, "Can you hit Moscow?" and expressed frustration over Putin's unwillingness to negotiate peace.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has issued a stern warning to BRICS nations—India, China, and Brazil—over their continued trade ties with Russia. Following a meeting with Donald Trump, who gave Putin a 50-day peace deadline, Rutte threatened 100% tariffs and secondary sanctions if these nations fail to pressure Moscow. The move marks a shift toward coordinated global economic pressure to end the war.

Putin's Agent Caught Planting Bomb in Ukrainian Apartment — SBU Foils Deadly Terror Plot in Rivne

Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) has intercepted a Russian agent caught red-handed planting a bomb in a civilian apartment in Rivne, Western Ukraine. The suspect, a 27-year-old man from Lviv, was allegedly recruited via Telegram by Russian intelligence with promises of “easy money.” The device was intended to be detonated remotely in a densely populated city center, aiming to inflict maximum civilian casualties and spread fear. The suspect now faces terrorism-related charges, conspiracy, and illegal possession of explosives. Authorities say this plot is part of a wider Russian campaign targeting civilians far from the frontlines, often exploiting vulnerable individuals with criminal or addiction histories. This is yet another stark reminder that Putin’s war is not limited to the battlefield. #Ukraine #Russia #SBU #Rivne #TerrorPlot #RussianAgent #TelegramRecruitment #Putin #UkraineWar #SecurityNews #BreakingNews #CivilianTargeting #HybridWarfare #EasternEurope #WaronCivilians Also Read US Will Send Patriot Missiles To Ukraine: Trump Takes U-Turn Over Arm Deliveries To Kyiv :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-send-patriot-missiles-to-ukraine-trump-takes-u-turn-over-arm-deliveries-to-kyiv-011-7800325.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Hits Russia's Crimea Bridge Using 1,100 Kilograms Of Explosives :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-hits-russias-crimea-bridge-using-1-100-kilograms-of-explosives-4171479.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.194~

‘No NATO? Then No Disarmament’ France’s Big WARNING Against Russia |France Draws Red Line On Ukraine

In a defiant statement ahead of key NATO-related discussions, French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu declared France’s “absolute red line” in the Ukraine conflict: demilitarizing Ukraine while denying it NATO membership. Lecornu told Valeurs Actuelles that Europe cannot accept a defenseless Ukraine outside NATO, directly rejecting Russia's long-standing demands for a neutral, demilitarized Ukraine. Russia, in contrast, insists any peace deal must address its security concerns — including Ukraine’s NATO ambition and military status. Lecornu's remarks come ahead of a UK-French push to reshape Ukraine’s post-war military under a Western “coalition of the willing.” Meanwhile, Moscow warns such moves will escalate the war, with foreign forces seen as “legitimate targets.” Tensions mount as Putin claims Ukraine reneged on the 2022 Istanbul terms that would’ve imposed limits on its army. The future of Ukraine’s military — and its place in Europe — hangs in the balance. #France #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #SebastienLecornu #UkraineNATO #NATOmembership #Putin #Kyiv #Demilitarization #Geopolitics #EUForeignPolicy #Macron #RedLine #CoalitionOfTheWilling #RussiaDemands #PeaceDeal #IstanbulTalks #TrumpUkraine #UkraineConflict #MilitaryAid Also Read Russia And North Korea Forge New Alliance Amid Ongoing War In Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-and-north-korea-forge-new-alliance-amid-ongoing-war-in-ukraine-3857193.html?ref=DMDesc Heightened Nuclear Risks As Russia, China Forge Closer Ties: NATO Chief :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/heightened-nuclear-risks-as-russia-china-forge-closer-ties-nato-chief-3855631.html?ref=DMDesc Hundreds Exchanged in Russia-Ukraine Prisoner Swap, Marking Largest Release Since Invasion :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-ukraine-prisoner-swap-hundreds-freed-in-largest-exchange-gen-3718639.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.125~

Russia has revealed that Washington has “postponed” a crucial third round of consultations aimed at resolving bilateral irritants, according to Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova. The talks, initially expected to build on earlier rounds held in Istanbul in February and April, are seen as essential for easing growing U.S.–Russia tensions. While the U.S. hasn't formally canceled the negotiations, the delay has sparked speculation over Washington’s intent and diplomatic posture. Zakharova emphasized that contacts remain active behind the scenes and that Moscow still perceives interest from the U.S. in improving ties. The “irritant removal” dialogue, seen as a rare platform amid escalating rhetoric, now faces renewed uncertainty.

Erodgan’s Dirty Politics RESURFACES As More CHP Leaders Arrested After Imamoglu’s Imprisonment

In a dramatic escalation of Turkey’s political crackdown, three more opposition mayors — Abdurrahman Tutdere of Adiyaman, Zeydan Karalar of Adana, and Muhittin Bocek of Antalya — have been arrested in sweeping early-morning raids. All are members of the main opposition party, CHP, which has faced a wave of detentions following Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu’s imprisonment in March. The mayors are accused of bribery, bid-rigging, and organized crime, though exact charges remain undisclosed. The arrests come amid mounting criticism of President Erdogan’s government, with critics claiming the detentions are politically motivated attempts to weaken the CHP ahead of future elections. Imamoglu, now jailed, has since been nominated as the CHP’s presidential candidate, and his arrest sparked Turkey’s largest protests in a decade. Observers warn of further instability if the crackdown continues. #Turkey #Erdogan #CHP #Imamoglu #OppositionArrests #TurkeyPolitics #CHPMayors #Adana #Antalya #Adiyaman #EkremImamoglu #ProtestsInTurkey #DemocracyUnderThreat #TurkishElections #Authoritarianism #CorruptionCharges #PoliticalCrackdown #Turkey2028Elections #HumanRights #FreeImamoglu ~HT.410~ED.103~

Turkey Wildfires Kill 2 As ‘Children Of Fire’ Claims Arson In 6 Cities, PKK Links Spark Fears

Turkey is battling deadly wildfires across multiple provinces, with two fatalities confirmed and over 200 homes destroyed. The blazes, burning for seven straight days, have taken a sinister turn after a group calling itself “Children of Fire” claimed responsibility for coordinated arson attacks in six cities. The group, allegedly linked to the banned Kurdish militant organization PKK, says it started the fires as part of a political campaign. The PKK has not commented on the claim. Firefighting operations continue near major cities like Izmir, Antalya, and Istanbul, with support from helicopters and aircraft. Roads near popular resort town Çeşme have been closed, and hundreds have been evacuated. As emergency services struggle to contain the flames, Turkey now faces a national security scare amid environmental devastation. The interior ministry has launched investigations into the arson claims while warning that further attacks may be imminent as the dry summer season continues. #TurkeyWildfires #ArsonAttack #ChildrenOfFire #PKK #IzmirFire #AntalyaFire #WildfireTerror #TurkeyEmergency #ForestFires #ClimateCrisis #TerrorismAlert #PoliticalArson #Kurds #EmergencyEvacuation #ÇeşmeFires #TurkishDisaster #SecurityThreat #FightingFlames #FirefighterHero #IzmirBurns ~ED.194~HT.408~

France BETRAYS Ally Ukraine | Refuses to Join U.S Weapons aid initiative for Kyiv | Zelensky SHOCKED

France has rejected NATO’s new U.S.-led initiative to fund American weapons for Ukraine, dealing a blow to Trump’s arms plan.
