GERMAN CHANCELLOR ANGELA Merkel tonight walked away from much-vaunted
talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin – because he was running
late.

The two leaders had been scheduled to meet at 6pm on the sidelines of
the annual Asia-European meeting in Milan this evening.

Putin had been attending a military parade to mark the 70th
anniversary of the Societ liberation of Belgrade from Nazi occupation.

But he left the Serbian capital late, according to Bloomberg News.

In response, the German chancellor’s office cancelled the meeting, and
would not say whether or not they would reschedule.

Tonight’s diplomatic debacle won’t do anything to ease tensions
between the two leaders, which were already building.

Earlier on today, Merkel criticised Putin for not doing enough to
uphold the ceasefire between both sides of the eastern Ukrainian
conflict, which was signed last month.

She said she expected to discuss the cease-fire deal, which has
reduced hostilities but failed to stop all fighting.
