Russian Delegation Heads To Istanbul For 3rd Round Of Ukraine Talks - Kremlin
20250723
The next round of direct negotiations between Russia and Ukraine is expected to start in Istanbul on Wednesday evening. This will be the third meeting since the talks resumed in May, following a hiatus of more than three years.
The topics include issues related to the draft memoranda on the settlement and the continuation of mutual exchanges.
Other key statements:
- The discussions will be complex, as the draft memoranda on the settlement are diametrically opposed.
- All work on agreeing the draft memoranda between Russia and Ukraine is preparation for a potential meeting between Putin and Zelensky.
- It is impractical to schedule a possible meeting between Putin and Zelensky without significant preparatory work.
- It is clear that a significant portion of the Western funds received by Kiev has been embezzled; there is a lot of corruption in Ukraine.
