As anticipation builds for peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, Moscow's stance remains unclear regarding President Putin's participation. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov indicated that an announcement about the representative would come when deemed appropriate by Putin. Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy has reiterated his willingness to meet in Turkey, expressing frustration over Russia's silence. Advisors stress that any discussions with lesser officials are futile, as only Putin holds the power to decide on the continuation or cessation of the conflict, highlighting the urgency of ending the war.
"Moscow has remained silent all day regarding the proposal for a direct meeting. A very strange silence," he said on Monday evening, adding that one way or another, Russia "will have to end this war."
"Only Putin can make a decision to continue the war or stop the war," Podolyak said, emphasizing the necessity of direct talks with the Russian President.
