Huh?
Did the Trump / Ukraine mineral deal rock his world?
Is this for REAL?
No reponse from Ukraine as I do this piece….
Vladimir Putin’s surprise truce announcement comes at a time when negotiations for peace in Ukraine appeared to have stalled.
As we continue to gather more reaction, here’s what we know and don’t know about Putin’s “Easter truce” declaration:
- Russia said there will be a temporary end to hostilities in Ukraine from 16:00 BST today to 22:00 BST tomorrow
- Putin said Russian troops will be ready to react if there are provocations or violations of the truce
- The Russian leader made the comments as he met with Chief of Russia’s General Staff Valery Gerasimov today
- Ukraine is yet to accept or reject the truce – the full details of which have not been shared
- After Putin’s announcement, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned drones over Ukraine and said it reveals his “true attitude toward Easter and human life”
- Russia’s ministry of defence said the truce had been “guided by humanitarian considerations”
- The announcement from the Kremlin comes after US President Donald Trump threatened to “pass” on Ukraine peace talks if no progress was made on a deal.
