“Peace talks complex” – new attacks in Ukraine
The Kremlin comments for the first time on the peace talks with Ukraine in Istanbul. Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov calls it an “extremely complex issue,” writes Reuters.
He further says that it will take time to agree on the way forward and that the Kremlin is currently waiting to receive a response from Ukraine to their demands. Among other things, they want large parts of Ukrainian territory to be given up and that the country should be kept neutral with a limited military. Ukraine, which has previously denied similar demands, says that it will review the agreement carefully before responding.
At the same time, reports are coming that Russian attacks are continuing in Ukraine. Reuters writes that three people have been killed and 25 injured by Russian artillery fire in Sumy in northeastern Ukraine.
Volodymyr Zelenskyj commented on the attack on Telegram by briefly writing: “That’s all you need to know about Russia’s will to end the war.”

Analysis: Trump is silent – how should he react?
How should an erratic Donald Trump react to the fact that peace talks between Ukraine and Russia appear to be at a standstill, and will he do anything at all? CNN's Matthew Chance asks himself in an analysis.
Chance writes that Trump could respond to Vladimir Putin by either increasing military support for Ukraine or imposing new sanctions, which already have strong support in Congress.
"The fact that Putin has once again given an uncompromising response to peace efforts may now force Trump to act."
Sky News notes that Donald Trump's promise of a quick peace has not succeeded and that the president's commitment seems to have cooled after several fruitless attempts. This week's talks in Istanbul have not yet been commented on by Trump, but with his history of speaking out on most things, a response could certainly come soon, the unsigned post says.
"But his decision to remain silent is also notable."

Sources: Trump frustrated – interest has cooled
Donald Trump's commitment to the peace talks between Russia and Ukraine is cooling down, American sources tell ABC News. The lack of progress has reportedly frustrated Trump even before Monday's meeting in Turkey and things have not gotten any better.
The extensive Russian list of demands for a ceasefire, which includes Ukraine withdrawing all troops from the Ukrainian regions that Russia has annexed, has reportedly disappointed the White House. However, according to the information, this was not surprising and the Trump administration sees it as the Kremlin trying to postpone the matter.
