A Russian Drone Strike Hit Ukraine’s Sumy Region Hours After First Direct Talks in Three Years.
It took three years to get officials from ukraine and russia in the same room.
But President Vladimir Putin, who proposed the meeting, did not go to Istanbul and the talks ended in less than 90 minutes.
The result: An agreement for a large scale prisoner exchange, talks about their presidents meeting, and both sides pushing their vision of a future ceafire.
Yet, diplomacy is not narrowing the great gap between Russia and Ukraine.
So, is President Putin Agreeing to further talks to avoid more sanctions?
And with Russia steadily advancing on the battlefield, can President Zelenskyy Afford to push for peace without further compromise?
