On Monday, April 28, after the announcement of Vladimir Putin on a three-day armistice, on May 8-10, in his speech for Ukrainians, Volodimir Zelenski showed his distrust of the intentions of the Russian President, saying that it is a new attempt to manipulate it.
“Now there is a new attempt to manipulate: for one reason, everyone has to wait 8 May and not stop fire except to ensure peace” During the parade of May 9 in the Red Square in Moscow, said Volodimir Zelenski, quoted by Agerpres.
We remind you that Vladimir Putin Vladimir Putin announced on Monday a humanitarian armistice, in Ukraine, between May 8 and 11, on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the victory of allies against Nazi Germany in World War II. The cessation of fire will enter into force at midnight on Wednesday, May 7 (Thursday, May 8, 00:00) and will take 72 hours, until midnight on Saturday, according to a Kremlin statement.
President Zelenski's statement comes in the context in which the Kremlin said that “Russia believes that Ukraine should follow the example and also declare an armistice at the 80th anniversary of Victoria.”
In the context in which the US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the US could withdraw from peace negotiations in Ukraine, ads regarding the cessation of fire seem to have the role of showing the availability of the conflict parties to enter a dialogue, in particular to the US President Donald Trump, who has assumed the role of mediator.
