💨 Abstract

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy will only attend peace talks if Russian President Vladimir Putin is present, challenging Russia's commitment to peace. President Donald Trump proposed attending the Istanbul meeting, aiming to end the Ukraine conflict. Both nations seek peace but have differing conditions: Ukraine wants a ceasefire first, while Russia insists on territorial concessions and NATO abandonment. Trump's involvement and potential sanctions add pressure for a resolution.
