Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Dmitro Kuleba said Thursday he held a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in Turkey to discuss humanitarian corridors and a ceasefire to evacuate civilians. There was no success in the negotiations to end the war. Kuleba said, there is a need to talk with other Russian policymakers. To resolve the humanitarian issues arising out of the war, it was agreed to negotiate on this model further.

If concessions were available, aid could have been provided to the citizens. Ukraine called for the evacuation of thousands of civilians stranded at the port of Mariupol and a halt to the war until aid to its men in Kyiv.
