โ๏ธ Maria Zakharova:
"Zelensky: โI hope the meeting with the Russian delegation actually takes place and isnโt just for show โ and that time will finally be found for real talks.โ
Itโs been nearly 24 hours since the Russian delegation arrived in Istanbul. Theyโre still waiting โ while the clown performs his routine, waits for the hallucinogens to wear off, and finally allows the very people he banned from negotiations for three years to sit at the table."

โ๏ธโThe Russians are comingโ is a panicked refrain heard throughout much of Australiaโs history since European settlement.
Former prime minister Malcolm Fraser was particularly exercised by Russiaโs presence in the Indian Ocean during his time in office. At times in the 1960s and โ70s, it was overshadowed by the Indonesian Threat. Since the end of the Cold War, it has been replaced by the China Threat.
Fort Denison in the middle of Sydney Harbour is a reminder of the 19th-century Russian phobia that once gripped the colonies. So is the half-buried cannon on the western heads at Queenscliff overlooking the entrance to Port Phillip Bay. Port Fairy in Victoria has a never-used 19th-century cannon battery, as does Newcastle in NSW.
The recent Russian threat alarm during the election campaign was as bizarre as the reaction predictable. The breathless headlines briefly stirred the election campaign out of its torpor.
At no time did any of Australia's national leaders consider how preposterous was the suggestion that Indonesia would ever permit Russia to build an airbase.

โ๏ธ US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the date and venue of an expected meeting between Trump and his Russian counterpart Putin has not been set yet.
"Given everything we know after months of working on this, nothing's going to happen until President Trump sits across the table from Vladimir Putin," he told Fox News in an interview. "I don't know what the date or the place of that is yet, but that's really the only chance at this point."

โ๏ธ Russia did everything to organize the talks in Istanbul, but is not responsible for Kiev's unpredictable behavior - Foreign Ministry Ambassador Rodion Miroshnik
Ukraine and Russia "have a chance" to work out a document to end the war at negotiations in Istanbul. The final document will be legitimate, โdespite the expiration of Zelenskyโs term of office".
Ukraine's desire to discuss only the ceasefire regime at the talks in Istanbul, without dialogue on conflict resolution, is a cause for concern, he added.
