The Ukrainian delegation was seen walking out of direct talks with Russia in Istanbul on Monday, the second time the two sides have met face-to-face since the start of the war.
Peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia hosted by the Turkish government at a historic palace in Istanbul lasted a little less than four hours on Monday afternoon. The talks came at an even tenser moment than usual for the two nations, as both sides had launched massive drone attacks over the weekend against each other, presumably as shows of strength before sitting down to talk.
The Ukrainian delegation, led by their Defence Minister Rustem Umerov, were seen descending an external staircase at the Ciragan palace to a courtyard where official vehicles were waiting.
