Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed ceasefire negotiations with Ukraine, proposing direct talks. 'We have repeatedly initiated ceasefires, and Kyiv violated them. We previously signaled our readiness to extend the current agreement, but Ukraine did not respond to our proposals,' he said. 'We have never rejected dialogue with Ukraine, and we propose to restart it. Direct talks can be held on May 15 in Istanbul, I will speak with President Erdogan tomorrow. We are interested in serious talks - Ukraine needs to decide now.'
