‼️ Zelenskyy to meet with Erdogan in Ankara on Thurs, ready to fly with him to Istanbul if Putin is there
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced a meeting with President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Thursday in Ankara and announced an agreement between them to fly to Istanbul together if Vladimir Putin arrives there.
"We talked to President Erdogan that I will have a meeting with him in the capital of Turkey. This is Ankara. It will be on Thursday, May 15th. We will wait for the meeting with Putin in Turkey so that Russia does not manipulate the cities and does not say that Putin is not ready to fly to Ankara, but is ready to fly only to Istanbul. I want to say right away that if Putin flies to Istanbul, and not to the capital, I have conveyed a signal to President Erdogan, and the Turkish side is ready that President Erdogan and I will fly to Istanbul. That is, in any case, we will do everything to ensure that this meeting takes place," Zelenskyy said during a briefing on Tuesday.

‼️ If Putin does not come to Turkey, all promises of US, European leaders about Russia-related sanctions must be fulfilled – Zelenskyy
The failure of Vladimir Putin to come to peace talks in Turkey will be regarded as the final demonstration of the Russian side's unreadiness to end the war, which means that all promises of the U.S. and European leaders about imposing sanctions against Russia must be fulfilled, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
"I believe that Putin's non-arrival, and again the games, is the final point of his demonstration that they are not ready for the end of the war. So all the promises, realistic and clear promises of the United States, Europe, and leaders of other countries must be fulfilled. Otherwise, you will not force Russia to take steps, to one or another format of de-escalation. So there will be sanctions," Zelenskyy said during a briefing on Tuesday.
