Zelensky Confirms Ukraine To Attend Istanbul Talks | Kyiv Demands Ceasefire, Return Of Children
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has confirmed Ukraine will attend peace talks with Russia in Istanbul on June 2.
Kyiv delayed confirmation to review Moscow’s ceasefire proposal but has now outlined its own demands: a full ceasefire, release of all prisoners, and return of abducted children.
Ukraine’s defense minister Rustem Umerov will lead the delegation.
While Kyiv seeks transparency, Russia’s memo reportedly includes sweeping demands like NATO freeze and sanctions removal.
Despite no documents shared by Moscow, Washington has urged Kyiv to proceed with the talks for the sake of peace.

Putin delivered a brutal takedown of Ukrainian leadership, declaring that “the whole of Ukraine is ours” while mocking Kyiv’s military for being only 47% staffed. Putin revealed that Ukraine’s attempted incursion into Russia’s Kursk region ended in disaster, with 76,000 Ukrainian troops lost. Calling their military strategy “stupidity,” he warned that Russia will now push for a buffer zone.

Trump met King Willem-Alexander, Queen Máxima, and Princess Amalia before attending a high-level dinner with NATO leaders. The visit is being called a “historic gesture of friendship and trust” by the White House. With rising global tensions and NATO unity under pressure, this royal reception marks a significant diplomatic moment just before critical talks on Russia, Ukraine, and collective defense.

President Donald Trump arrives at the NATO summit in The Hague amid escalating tensions over Russia’s war in Ukraine. In a stunning revelation, Trump claims Putin offered help on Iran—but he fired back, saying “I need help with YOU.” Meanwhile, Ukraine’s Dnipro suffers a deadly missile strike killing 11 and injuring 160, intensifying Zelensky’s calls for tougher sanctions. Trump pushes for a deal with Russia, questions NATO’s Article 5, and pressures allies on a 5% GDP defense pledge. Is NATO cracking? Is Trump rewriting the rules of global power?

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.

A large-scale prisoner exchange between Russia and Ukraine has been completed, as announced by Donald Trump on Truth Social. The deal follows trilateral talks between Ukraine, the U.S., and Turkey in Istanbul and direct Russia-Ukraine negotiations. Defense Minister Rustem Umerov confirmed discussions around a 1,000-for-1,000 exchange, a ceasefire, and a possible Zelenskyy-Putin meeting.

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.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has exposed Russia’s latest so-called “peace memorandum” as an outright ultimatum, stating Moscow demanded Ukraine recognize its occupation of Crimea and other regions, fully withdraw troops, and accept neutrality. The second round of Istanbul talks yielded humanitarian gains, like POW swaps, but no ceasefire. Zelensky vowed not to discuss sovereignty or concede territory. While Ukraine offered prisoner exchanges and EU/NATO alignment, Russia refused compromise. The U.S. remains frustrated with Moscow’s hardline stance amid ongoing war escalation.

In a high-stakes diplomatic turn, Russia has declared its unwavering support for Iran amid rising U.S.-Israel hostilities. Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated, “Everything will depend on what Iran needs,” emphasizing Russia’s readiness to act accordingly. Following a crucial meeting between Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and President Putin, Moscow slammed the Western aggression as baseless. Putin called the attacks “unprovoked” and offered mediation and strategic backing to Tehran. The growing Russia-Iran axis could shift power dynamics in the Middle East. What happens next depends solely on Iran's decision.

Amid the escalating U.S.–Israeli airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear and military sites, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi made an unannounced trip to Moscow to meet President Vladimir Putin. In a blunt statement, Putin condemned the attacks, calling them “aggression with no basis or justification.” The meeting signals a tightening Tehran-Moscow front and raises fresh questions about how the crisis could widen if Russia throws its weight behind Iran diplomatically—or even militarily.
