4:49
not have failed to understand what kind
4:51
of vehicle they were targeting this was
4:53
a deliberate killing of civilians
4:56
yesterday as on any other day of this
4:58
war there was an opportunity to cease
5:01
fire ukraine has long been offering this
5:04
a full and unconditional ceasefire in
5:06
order to save lives russia retains
5:09
nothing but the ability to continue
5:11
killing pressure must be exerted on
5:13
Russia to stop the killings without
5:15
tougher sanctions without stronger
5:18
pressure Russia will not seek real
5:20
diplomacy yesterday in Istanbul everyone
5:24
saw a weak and unprepared Russian
5:25
delegation without a meaningful mandate
5:28
this must change real steps are needed
5:31
to end the war we are expecting strong
5:34
sanctions against Russia from the United
5:36
States from Europe and from all our
5:38
partners diplomacy must start working i
5:42
thank everyone around the world who is
5:44
truly helping not with words but with
5:47
strength peace is essential it may be
5:50
interesting to know that the attack
5:52
occurred just hours after Russia and
5:54
Ukraine held their first direct peace
5:56
talks in more than 3 years in Istanbul
5:59
Turkey on Friday that has shown the
6:01
meeting failed to produce a temporary
6:03
ceasefire the strike is the latest in a
6:06
series of deadly escalations even as
6:08
diplomatic talks between the two sides
6:10
begin to resume commander Ihort Tik
6:13
Kachenko head of Sunumi's military
6:16
administration confirmed medics and

who died fighting against Russia the
6:32
coordination headquarters for the

6:51
reported that the Ukrainian president
6:53
Vladimir Zalinski on Friday has said
6:56
that the Russia war in Ukraine was
6:57
moving towards ending this week if
7:00
Ukrainian President Vladimir Zalinski on
7:03
Friday has said that the Russia war in
7:05
Ukraine was moving towards ending this
7:07
week if only that the Russian President
7:10
Vladimir Putin wasn't afraid of coming
7:12
to Anchora the Turkey capital on
7:14
Thursday to have face-to-face peace deal
7:17
talks with him in line with his own
7:18
request for direct peace talks which
7:21
Zalinski said made him to travel to
7:23
Turkey in person but it was a surprise
7:26
the Kremlin leader President Vladimir
7:28
Putin instead sent a very low-level
7:30
government officials to the Russia
7:32
president proposed dialogue meeting in
7:34
Anchora although Russia and Ukraine have
7:37
been wrestling for months over the
7:38
logistics of peace talks with hopes of
7:41
achieving such in the proposed Anchora
7:43
peace talks but days before D-Day
7:45
President Donald Trump of the United
7:47
States US had said that he sees no
7:50
movement of Putin coming to Anchora
7:52
until he and Putin get together and
7:55
according to President Zalinski it was
7:57
President Trump who told him publicly to
7:59
immediately accept the Kremlin leader
8:01
proposal of direct talks president
8:04
Donald Trump who since on Friday had
8:07
left the Middle East back home to meet
8:09
his new grandson after his daughter
8:11
Tiffany Trump announced she gave birth
8:13
to her first child on Thursday said he
8:16
will meet with Russian President
8:17
Vladimir Putin as soon as we can set it
8:20
up to discuss Ukraine Russia peace talks
8:24
according to Zalinski I addressed the
8:26
European political community summit this
8:29
week we had a real chance to move toward
8:31
ending the war if only Putin hadn't been
8:34
afraid to come to Turkey i was there
8:37
ready for a direct meeting with him to
8:39
resolve all key issues he didn't agree
8:42
to anything i spoke with President
8:45
Donald Trump together with President
8:47
Macarron Federal Chancellor Mertz Prime
8:50
Minister Stmer and Tusk we discussed the
8:53
meeting in Istanbul ukraine is ready to
8:55
take the fastest possible steps to bring
8:58
real peace and it is important that the
9:00
world holds a strong stance our position
9:03
if the Russians reject a full and
9:05
unconditional ceasefire and an end to
9:07
killings tough sanctions must follow
9:10
pressure on Russia must be maintained
9:12
until Russia is ready to end the war
9:15
thank you to everyone in the world who
9:17
is helping united Kingdom UK Prime
9:20
Minister Karma said "If Russia is
9:23
unwilling to come to the negotiating
9:25
table Putin must pay the price."
9:28
Speaking to President Donald Trump we
9:31
are closely aligning our response to
9:32
Russia's unacceptable position while
9:35
ending his Middle East tour on Friday
9:38
President Trump said "I would actually
9:40
leave here and go meet Putin i do want
9:43
to see my beautiful grandson." It would
9:46
be recalled that Ukraine and Russia have
9:48
not held any direct talks since March
9:51
2022 shortly after Putin sent tanks over
9:54
the border beginning the first major
9:56
land war in Europe since World War II
10:00
but according to Reuters hopes of a
10:02
major breakthrough appear unlikely with
10:05
US President Donald Trump declaring
10:07
there wasn't likely to be any progress
10:09
in the peace talks until he meets with
10:11
his Russian counterpart nothing's going
10:14
to happen until Putin and I meet
10:16
president Trump declared i know nothing
10:19
about a delegation i haven't even
10:20
checked nothing's going to happen until
10:23
Putin and I get together okay and
10:26
obviously he wasn't going to go he was
10:27
going to go but he thought I was going
10:28
to go he wasn't who are connected
