Russian President Vladimir Putin has endorsed Slovakia as a neutral venue for potential peace talks to resolve the Ukraine conflict. In a significant divergence from other EU nations, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has maintained a stance against supplying arms to Ukraine, positioning Slovakia as a possible mediator. Meanwhile, Putin remains firm on the “territorial realities” that Ukraine must accept, including the loss of key regions. As the world speculates on the future of negotiations, can Slovakia bring both sides to the table, or is this move another strategic play by Moscow?

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has made provocative statements regarding the ongoing Ukraine conflict, urging for a shift in diplomatic approaches. Lavrov emphasized that peace efforts should not be seen as a "zero-sum game," but rather as a process of listening to both sides and seeking common ground. In a direct response to European Union and NATO leaders, he criticized their vehement opposition to US-Russia talks, calling their reaction “unhealthy” and detrimental to peace efforts. Lavrov also condemned NATO Chief Jens Stoltenberg for instructing Ukrainian President Zelensky not to make any concessions to Russia, accusing him of "abusing his position." Lavrov’s remarks highlight the growing divide between Russia and Western powers, as both sides remain entrenched in their positions.

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has urged European leaders to stop complaining about being sidelined in Ukraine peace talks and instead present concrete solutions. Speaking at the Munich Security Conference, Rutte emphasized that Europe must take action rather than protest its exclusion from key negotiations. His remarks come amid growing concerns that the US and Russia may shape Ukraine’s future without significant European input. Meanwhile, NATO plans to finalize a new defense spending agreement at its upcoming June summit, stressing that many members still fail to meet their commitments.
