In a dramatic turn after the collapse of the latest Russia-Ukraine peace talks in Istanbul, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio held a crucial phone call discussing the future of negotiations and potential ceasefire conditions. Lavrov welcomed Washington's “constructive” approach, while Rubio praised a proposed 1,000-for-1,000 POW exchange as a positive step. As both sides seek new diplomatic footing, speculation is mounting over a possible high-stakes meeting between Presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump to break the deadlock and chart a path toward ending the war.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov revealed the next steps in Russia-Ukraine negotiations following recent talks. Both sides agreed to exchange detailed lists of ceasefire conditions, but no Putin-Zelensky meeting will occur until concrete agreements are reached. A possible Putin-Trump call will be announced if deemed necessary. Negotiations remain confidential with no changes to the Russian delegation, and no contacts have taken place yet between Russian and US leaders after Istanbul. The focus now is on implementing existing agreements before further discussions.

US President Donald Trump has warned of imposing “crushing” new sanctions on Russia if Moscow fails to strike a peace deal with Ukraine. Speaking after the first direct Russia-Ukraine talks since 2022, Trump said the US would use its leverage and domestic oil production to weaken the Russian economy. He also hinted at a possible meeting with President Putin. Meanwhile, the two warring sides agreed on a major prisoner exchange involving 1,000 POWs each and committed to working on a comprehensive ceasefire proposal in the coming weeks.

Russia and Ukraine have agreed in principle to resume peace negotiations after high-level talks in Istanbul, Turkish FM Hakan Fidan confirmed. The breakthrough includes a major exchange of 1,000 prisoners from each side—marking the largest such swap since the war began. Both delegations agreed to submit written ceasefire proposals, though no deadline has been set. Türkiye, acting as a neutral mediator, facilitated the talks.

Pope Leo XIV has offered the Vatican as a venue for peace talks between Ukraine and Russia, following the failed negotiations in Istanbul where Putin was notably absent. The Vatican called Putin’s no-show “tragic” and reaffirmed its openness to mediation. Cardinal Parolin acknowledged the difficulty of the situation but stressed the Holy See’s readiness. In his first Sunday blessing, Pope Leo urged both leaders to “meet, talk, and negotiate,” emphasizing that peacemakers are the ones who truly “make history.” The Pope has pledged to prioritize peace throughout his papacy.

In a major overnight assault on May 15–16, Russia launched 112 drones—including Shahed models—at Ukraine, striking multiple regions. Ukraine’s air defense systems shot down 73 UAVs, but the attack still caused damage across Odesa, Kyiv, Zhytomyr, Mykolaiv, and Chernihiv. The drones were launched from Bryansk, Kursk, and Millerovo. Ukrainian aircraft, missile units, and electronic warfare systems responded to the coordinated drone swarm. While 36 decoy drones vanished from radar, the repeated strikes continue to threaten both civilian infrastructure and military targets across Ukraine.

NATO faces a deepening crisis as a major corruption probe targets its support and procurement agency. Coordinated raids across six countries, including the U.S., led to multiple arrests over allegations of bribery, money laundering, and misuse of classified data in defense contracts. Belgian authorities confirmed drone and ammunition deals are under scrutiny. NATO says it is cooperating fully. Secretary General Mark Rutte vowed to “clean house” as the scandal threatens procurement efforts amid urgent calls to arm Ukraine.

Russia has slammed French President Emmanuel Macron, accusing him of leading a “party of war” in NATO and the EU after he backed tougher sanctions on Moscow over the Ukraine conflict. The Kremlin says France is escalating hybrid warfare and blocking diplomacy by sending Mirage 2000 jets to Kyiv. Kremlin spokesperson Zakharova condemned the sanctions as an illegitimate trade war. Putin demands Ukraine halt mobilization and withdraw from Russian-claimed territories before any meaningful ceasefire talks can begin.

Ukraine has confirmed the loss of another U.S.-made F-16 fighter jet during a combat mission repelling a Russian airstrike. This marks the third F-16 crash since the West began supplying the jets. Communication was lost mid-mission as the pilot destroyed three targets before an emergency forced him to eject. He avoided civilian casualties and is recovering. The incident raises concerns over Ukraine’s ability to match Russia’s superior airpower with limited, delayed F-16 deliveries. An investigation is underway as Ukraine struggles to deploy the jets effectively.
