Ukraine and Russia are scheduled to resume peace negotiations in Istanbul, marking the first direct talks in several weeks. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has renewed calls for a face-to-face meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, aiming to push forward a ceasefire and end the war. However, the Kremlin has downplayed expectations, insisting that Russia's core demands must be met and warning against expecting 'miracles' from the talks. Meanwhile, Russian attacks on Ukrainian cities continue, causing civilian casualties and destruction, underscoring the urgency but also the difficulty of reaching a settlement. Both sides remain far apart on key issues, making a breakthrough unlikely in the immediate future.
