Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed direct negotiations with Ukraine to Istanbul on Sunday, which, in his opinion, should be aimed at establishing a sustainable peace and eliminating the profound causes of the war.
He said that Russia is proposing direct discussions with Ukraine in Istanbul in an attempt to “eliminate the deep causes of the conflict” and to “get the restoration of a long -term long -term peace, rather than a simple break for re -arming.
“We propose Kiev to resume direct negotiations without any prior condition. We offer to Kiev authorities to resume negotiations on Thursday, Istanbul,” Putin said in the early hours of Sunday.
