In a dramatic escalation of diplomacy, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has responded to Vladimir Putin’s offer for direct peace talks in Turkey — but with a firm condition: no negotiations without a full, reliable ceasefire. Citing relentless drone strikes and broken truces, Zelensky declared there would be "NO IFs OR BUTs" when it comes to peace. Meanwhile, Donald Trump has called for immediate talks to end the "bloodbath" and labeled the moment a "potentially great day" for both nations. As European leaders demand unconditional ceasefire and warn of further sanctions, tensions are peaking.
