Very enjoyable watching you reach out all the way to Azerbaijan for quotes by America's President Trump.

He and his statements are so-o-o hard to find in US media......

It's important Zelensky and the EU don't find a way to back out of peace talks with ridiculous demands.

We don't get anything out of minerals deal until the war is over.

Turkey offered to host a peace summit between Russia and Ukraine back in March 2024. Zelensky refused, claiming he would not engage directly with Russia on peace talks.

Turkey's Erdogan offers to host Ukraine-Russia peace talks

"Do you think Putin will come for this meeting?"

It's anybody's guess who will show up.
