Ukraine and Russia are ready for a new meeting - Ankara confirmed the fundamental consent of the parties

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said that the Ukrainian and Russian delegations have reached a “fundamental agreement” on the holding of another meeting. This was reported by Anadolu . The exact date of the next round of negotiations has not yet been disclosed.

Meanwhile, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said that he was discussing the situation around negotiations in Turkey with Donald Trump, as well as with the President of France, the Chancellor of Germany and the heads of government of Great Britain and Poland.

“Our position: if Russians refuse a complete and unconditional ceasefire and murders, there must be strong sanctions. The pressure on Russia should be preserved until Russia is ready to end the war. ”

The Chairman of the European Commission Ursula von der Lyan, in turn, promised to increase pressure on Moscow if negotiations are failing. She stated that the EU is ready to introduce additional sanctions that may affect the North Stream gas pipelines, the Russian banking system and the “shadow fleet”, used to circumvent the restrictions on the export of Russian oil.
