‘No progress’ as top Russia, Ukraine diplomats talk in Turkey

Ukraine’s foreign minister says he discussed a 24-hour ceasefire with his Russian counterpart but no progress was made.

The foreign ministers of Russia and Ukraine met for face-to-face talks in Turkey on Thursday in the first high-level contact between the two sides since Moscow invaded its ex-Soviet neighbour last month.

“We also talked on the ceasefire but no progress was accomplished on that,” Dmytro Kuleba told reporters after his meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

He described the meeting as “difficult” and accused Lavrov of bringing “traditional narratives” to the table.
