Russia INSULTS Zelensky, Calling Him a Clown and Pathetic Ahead of Critical IstanbulUkraine Talks
Tensions flared as Russia and Ukraine traded insults just before their first direct peace talks in over three years.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called Russiaâs delegation a âDummy team,â while Moscow fired back, labeling him a âclownâ and âpathetic.â Putin is skipping the talks despite global pressure, instead sending a hardliner historian who denies Ukraineâs nationhood.
Talks will take place in Istanbulâs Dolmabahce Palace under strict watch.
With emotions high and leadership absent, hopes for a breakthrough remain fragile.

US President Donald Trump stated in Doha that he might travel to Turkey on Friday if the ongoing Russia-Ukraine peace negotiations show significant progress. Trumpâs comments come as international focus shifts to the Istanbul talks, marking the first direct peace push since the conflict reignited. While Putin isnât attending, Ukraineâs Zelensky may join if Trump does. This potential high-level presence could reshape the talks. Trump emphasized his flexibility and readiness to step in if diplomacy shows traction, hinting at a breakthrough in what many consider a stalled negotiation process.

In a major twist, Russia has signaled readiness to resume direct peace talks with Ukraine, with Russian presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky stating Moscow is open to "discussion and possible compromises." Speaking from Istanbul ahead of the highly anticipated negotiations, Medinsky is leading a senior delegation including top defense and intelligence officials. This comes after President Putinâs recent proposal to restart dialogueâsparking speculation of a strategic U-turn in Moscowâs stance.
