Istanbul

A clause in the draft agreement between Kyiv and Moscow, giving Russia the right to veto the international response to a repeated attack on Ukraine, disrupted their peace talks in Istanbul weeks after the full-scale Russian invasion, The New York Times reported on June 15, citing sources and the March 17 and April 15, 2022 drafts.

The Ukrainian peace formula is at the top of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s agenda during his March 8 visit to Istanbul to meet his Turkish counterpart Recep Erdogan, according to his office’s report on Telegram.
