Russian officials continue to demonstrate a hardline stance ahead of the second round of peace talks in Istanbul. It is known that Russia remains on a warpath and shows no interest in constructive negotiations. Experts believe that the low probability of reaching a substantial agreement during these negotiations indicates Russia's intention to prolong the peace process to achieve its goals.Therefore, Russia's position during the peace talks in Istanbul remains tough, complicating the path to achieving peace in the region. Russia continues to act offensively and seeks to use the negotiations to gain additional advantages from Ukraine and its Western partners.
