Volodymyr Zelenskyy skeptical of Vladimir Putin’s temporary Easter ceasefire

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy Expressed skepticism due to the announcement of Russian President Vladimir Putin that Russia would notice a temporary truce during an Easter vacation.

After the announcement, Zelenskyy posted on X that air warnings were through Ukraineadding that Russian drones were discovered in the sky.

“Shahed drones in our sky reveal Putin’s true attitude towards Easter and to human life,” he wrote.

Kremlin shared a video on Saturday in which Putin said, “Guided by humanitarian considerations, today from 6:00 pm to 00:00, from Sunday to Monday, the Russian side proclaims the Easter truce.”

He later added that Russia “ignored” the proposal of the United States for a 30-day truck after Ukraine “responded positively”.

“If Russia is now suddenly ready to truly involve the full and unconditional silence format, Ukraine will act accordingly – mirror Russian procedures,” Zelenskyy said. “Silence in response to silence, defensive hits in response to attacks.”

He said that if the Easter truce actually caught, he proposed to expand it.

“This is what will reveal the right intentions of Russia, because 30 hours is enough to make titles, but not for the true measures of the construction of confidence,” he said. “Thirty days could give peace a chance.”

Zelenskyy later added to x“So far, according to the reports of the general commander, Russian attacks are continued in several sectors in the first place, and the Russian artillery fire has not been silent. Therefore, there is no confidence in the words coming from Moscow. We know too well how to manipulate Moscow and we are prepared for anything.

“Ukraine’s defense forces will act rationally – reacting in nature. Every Russian strike will be filled with an appropriate answer.”

Late on Saturday, Zelenskyy wrote that “Easter statements of Putin did not expand to” Kralje and Belgorod of the Ukraine regions, where he said that “hostilities continue and Russian hits persevere. The Russian artillery can still be heard in certain directions of the front, regardless of the fact that Russian Dnnes are in silence.”

He admitted, “In some areas, the situation has become quiet.”

Zelenskyy said that “a proposal for a full and unconditional 30-day silence remains on the table-it must come from Moscow. Ukraine, together with our partners, is ready to go to peace, which is more constructive, but the same willingness is needed from Russia.”

The war raged for over three years and cost the lives of tens of thousands of people on both sides after Russia attacked the sovereign land in February 2022.
