Kovalenko assured that this data is false, the meeting was not planned for such a time. "It is not excluded that the Russians just want to manipulate the topic of negotiations. Because their propagandists write that" negotiations are needed by everyone except Ukraine. " He explained that in reality the movement to peace is not needed except Russia, which "in every way avoids" a truce for 30 days and "normal dialogue". As a result, the lieutenant emphasized that the enemy spreads lies.
Ukrainian volunteer and blogger Sergey Sternenko responded to this statement. "Mr. Kovalenko, the question is not that for an hour appointed/theoretical negotiations. And in whether they will be today. Whether Ukrainian ministers will talk to Russian third Russian deputies," he wrote, attaching a screenshot of the publication of the head of the CPD. We will remind, the beginning of negotiations in Istanbul at 10:00 was reported in the Russian TASS with reference to an anonymous source.
The Russian President Vladimir Putin himself will not be known at the meeting. He sent a whole delegation of representatives, which included in particular the Deputy Minister of Defense, Assistant President, Deputy Head of the Foreign Ministry, Head of the General Directorate of the General Staff and several experts. As noted in Bloomberg, such a delegation is probably not justified by Ukraine, as President Volodymyr Zelenskyy insisted on direct negotiations with the Kremlin leader.
