Who Is Vladimir Medinsky? Putin Skips Ukraine Talks In Istanbul, Names Nationalist Aide As Lead

Vladimir Putin will not attend the high-stakes Russia-Ukraine talks in Istanbul. Instead, Kremlin aide and nationalist figure Vladimir Medinsky will lead the Russian delegation, reigniting debate over Russia's negotiation sincerity. Medinsky, known for his controversial historical views, previously led failed 2022 talks with Ukraine. Ukrainian President Zelensky insists only Putin’s presence signals real intent. He refuses to meet lower-tier officials. Meanwhile, Trump is also expected to skip the event. The absence of top leaders adds doubt over whether Istanbul's negotiations will yield any breakthrough in the ongoing war. #VladimirMedinsky #PutinUkraineTalks #RussiaUkraineWar #IstanbulPeaceTalks #UkraineCrisis #PutinNotAttending #RussiaDelegation #ZelenskyPutin #UkraineNegotiations #RussiaPeaceTalks #MedinskyHistory #TrumpSkipsTalks #UkraineWar2025 #PeaceInUkraine #PutinSkipsTalks #UkraineConflict #RussiaNews #ZelenskyStatement #KremlinDirective #Geopolitics2025 ~HT.318~ED.102~
