Ceasefire Agreement/New Round of US-Russia Talks in Istanbul

A new round of talks between the US and Russia will take place in Istanbul on April 10. The news is confirmed by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.

The negotiations will include representatives from the foreign ministries of both countries. Peskov did not provide details on the topics that the Russian and American delegations will discuss.

The news comes after US President Donald Trump repeatedly pushed for a ceasefire, while Russia has repeatedly hit Ukrainian cities in drone and missile attacks.

The two previous public meetings between Russian and American officials took place in March in Saudi Arabia.

Earlier this month, Russian negotiator Kirill Dmitriev arrived in Washington to hold talks with US officials on behalf of Russian President Vladimir Putin and met with Steve Witkoff, US President Donald Trump's special envoy for the Middle East, at the White House.

President Volodymyr Zelensky on April 3 also acknowledged that US and Russian officials were holding private talks on the possibility of a full ceasefire in Ukraine.

Kiev has said for weeks that it is ready to begin a full 30-day ceasefire, in line with a proposal from Washington, as long as Russia agrees to the same terms. Russia has so far refused, agreeing only to partial ceasefires on energy infrastructure and in the Black Sea, in exchange for restored access to international markets. /CNA
