Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has proposed June 2 as the next date for direct talks with Ukraine in Istanbul, following their first meeting since 2022 on May 16.
Russia claims it’s ready with a detailed peace memorandum and awaits Kiev’s confirmation.
Lavrov thanked Türkiye, the US, and Saudi Arabia for facilitating dialogue.
This development follows the largest Russia-Ukraine prisoner swap yet—1,000 individuals exchanged.
Talks aim at lasting peace, with Moscow pushing for Ukraine’s neutrality and non-NATO status amid Western media claims of delays.
