Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has dismissed Russia’s proposed three-day ceasefire as a political stunt, arguing that only a longer truce could pave the way for meaningful talks.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has rejected Russia’s proposal for a three-day ceasefire, dismissing it as a theatrical move aimed at improving President Vladimir Putin’s image rather than achieving meaningful progress.
