Geopolitical developments: Ukraine-Russia talks
On June 2, 2025, Ukraine and Russia held a second round of peace talks in Istanbul. While both parties agreed to exchange approximately 6,000 deceased soldiers and wounded prisoners, they made no significant progress toward a ceasefire. Russia proposed a ceasefire contingent upon Ukraine withdrawing from four occupied regions, a condition Kyiv is considering. Additionally, Ukraine presented a list of 339 children allegedly abducted by Russia, demanding their return. Russia agreed to work on returning only ten. The talks were brief, lasting under two hours, and concluded without a ceasefire agreement
European Central Bank (ECB) meeting
The ECB is scheduled to hold a monetary policy meeting on June 5, 2025. Market expectations suggest a 25 basis point cut in the deposit rate, bringing it down to 2.00%. This anticipated cut would mark the eighth consecutive reduction since June 2024. The decision comes amid easing inflation and weak economic growth in the eurozone. However, ECB officials have indicated limited room for further rate cuts and emphasized the need for flexibility in monetary policy decisions.
