Investing.com -- The Kremlin commented on Tuesday, underscoring the complexities involved in reaching a settlement to end the war in Ukraine. The statement came in response to the peace talks held in Turkey on Monday, where Russia conveyed its conditions for ending the fight. These conditions, which include Ukraine ceding large new territories and agreeing to restrictions on its army size, have been consistently rejected by Ukraine.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov addressed reporters on Tuesday, stating that the agreements reached in Istanbul to exchange prisoners and the remains of fallen soldiers will be respected. He also mentioned that efforts to reach a potential settlement will persist.
The spokesman further mentioned that there has been no agreement on specific future interactions between Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump. However, he confirmed that Putin is open to various high-level engagements, provided they are adequately planned.
When asked about the possibility of a face-to-face meeting between Putin, Trump, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, Peskov indicated that such a meeting is unlikely to happen in the near future.
