ANTALYA, TURKIYE - MARCH 10: Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu and Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba met on Thursday, March 10, on the sidelines of the Antalya Diplomacy Forum in Turkiye. The foreign ministers of Turkiye, Ukraine and Russia will meet on with the aim of reach lasting peace as the Russia-Ukraine war enters its 15th day. Moscow has various conditions to end the war in Ukraine. It wants Ukraine to amend its constitution to state unequivocally that Kyiv will not join any military alliance and that Crimea is Russian territory. In February 2019, Ukraine's parliament approved amendments to the constitution that enshrine Ukraine's desire to join NATO. Kyiv wants the war on its territory to end and Russian troops to completely withdraw from Ukrainian soil, including Crimea and Donbas. The first round of negotiations took place on Feb. 28 in Gomel, Belarus near the Ukrainian border and lasted five hours. The second round took place on March 3 and the third on March 7, both in the Brest region of Belarus. Russia announced early Monday that it would declare a "temporary" cease-fire in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv and the cities of Mariupol, Kharkiv and Sumy from 10 a.m. local time (0700GMT) to ensure the evacuation of civilians. Russia's war on Ukraine, which began on Feb. 24, has drawn international condemnation, led to financial sanctions on Moscow and spurred an exodus of global companies from Russia. At least 516 civilians have been killed and 908 others injured in Ukraine so far, according to UN figures, with the real toll feared to be higher. More than 2.1 million people have fled Ukraine to neighboring countries, according to the UN Refugee Agency. (Footage by Turkish Foreign Ministry/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
