Russia, Ukraine to resume in-person talks after Biden's overseas gaffes on troops in Ukraine, Putin's 'power'

Ukrainians and Russians are meeting in Turkey this week to discuss a potential cease-fire, despite a series of gaffes from President Biden last week.

This is not the first time Russia and Ukraine met for potential cease-fire negotiations during the war – which has now dragged on for more than a month. But it's notable after the White House was forced to walk back three comments from Biden – on three consecutive days – that many feared had the potential to inflame international relations in the region.
