The next round of Russia-Ukraine negotiations will take place next Monday, June 2, in Istanbul, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has announced. Representatives of the two sides met in the same city on May 16, for the first time since 2022.
In a statement on Wednesday, Lavrov said that the Russian delegation has since prepared a memorandum outlining its terms for achieving a lasting resolution to the conflict.
"Our delegation headed by [Russia's top negotiator Vladimir] Medinsky is ready to present this memorandum to the Ukrainian delegation and provide necessary clarifications during a second round of resumed direct negotiations in Istanbul next Monday, June 2," the minister detailed.
Lavrov expressed hope that "all those who are sincerely interested in the success of the peace process, and not merely paying lip service to it, will support the new round of Istanbul direct Russia-Ukraine negotiations."
