Putin’s Diplomatic Overdue: Possible Talks With Zelensky to End Ukraine War

The Kremlin has not yet made an official statement regarding potential meetings between Russian President Vladimir V. Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, though analysts are cautiously optimistic that such talks may soon take place. Despite the political sensitivity of the situation, some experts believe that the Russian leader’s recent visit to Anchorage could signal a willingness to engage in serious diplomatic discussions. This development comes after a series of geopolitical developments that have forced both parties to reconsider their positions. According to sources in the Russian media, Putin has been weighing the possibility of a mediated peace settlement that could reduce the conflict’s intensity. The potential talks are seen as a turning point in the war, with analysts suggesting that while a full-scale military conflict may continue, a diplomatic resolution is now more attainable than previously thought.
