U.N. Chief To Meet With Putin, Zelenskyy To Press For Peace

The UN continues its efforts to mediate peace in Ukraine, with Secretary General Antonio Gutierrez visiting Russia to discuss humanitarian support and potential peace talks. Despite meetings with Russian officials, including Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, no significant progress has been made. Diplomatic efforts remain challenging, with both Russia and Ukraine showing limited interest in negotiations amid ongoing military operations. International mediation, including Turkey's involvement, offers some hope for humanitarian assistance, but violence persists, particularly in eastern Ukraine.
