President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine has expressed his intent to resume peace negotiations with Russia during his upcoming visit to Turkey. The talks, which have remained stagnant for several months, are seen as a critical step toward resolving the ongoing conflict. Zelensky’s announcement comes amid heightened tensions, as both sides continue their military operations in eastern Ukraine and the Donbas region.
Zelensky’s new proposals are expected to address key issues including the status of occupied territories, humanitarian aid for civilians, and the potential for a ceasefire. However, the success of the negotiations will depend on Russia’s willingness to engage in good faith, which has been a significant challenge thus far. Analysts suggest that the stalled talks highlight the complexity of the conflict, with deep-seated political and strategic differences between the two nations.
