Putin Refuses To Attend Peace Talks With Zelensky After Trump Backed Negotiations

Russian President Vladimir Putin will not be attending peace talks in Turkey with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Thursday despite calling for direct negotiations between the warring countries, the BBC reported.

President Donald Trump, who is in Qatar, had hinted at possibly attending the meeting himself if Putin was present, but a Kremlin statement announced Wednesday that presidential aide Vladimir Medinksy would lead the Russian delegation, the BBC reported. Putin called for a direct conversation between Russia and Ukraine on May 10, according to CNN. Trump then requested that the Ukrainians attend the meeting in a post on his Truth Social platform on May 11, saying that the Russian president was open to negotiating “a possible end to the BLOODBATH” in Istanbul, Turkey.

Shortly after these events, Zelensky announced that he would be willing to sit across the table from Putin.

His chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, said the Ukrainian president was willing to discuss “anything that contributes to long and lasting peace,” Politico reported.

Zelenksy called Putin's bluff and revealed him to be the coward that he truly is.

Putin isn't interested in Peace, as actions like this clearly show.

Pres. Trump continues to be played, as Putin manipulates him with that ever-elusive "peace deal".
FreeRussia is controlled by a small group of anti-free-speech Nazis - no wonder its donations are down!!

Putin is damaging his bro'mance with Tangerine Mussolini.

I was shocked by this. Putin may think this looks strong...but most people think it's like a challenge to meet at  the flagpole after school and then not show up.

He doesn't want peace.

He wants the soviet empire back.

He's not getting it.
