Zelenskiy Skeptical as Russia Begins 36-Hour Cease-Fire
Показать описание
Russia said its troops stopped fighting in Ukraine at noon Moscow time Friday under President Vladimir Putin’s order of a 36-hour cease-fire for the Orthodox Christmas holiday. Kyiv dismissed the offer as a ploy.
Air-raid sirens sounded across the country shortly after the deadline, Ukraine said.
Russia’s Defense Ministry said its forces had stopped firing across the entire front line but accused Ukraine of continuing to fight. Earlier, Russian military officials had said they would continue to fight if fired on or if Ukraine’s forces pushed to advance.
Kyiv and its allies in the US and Europe rejected Putin’s surprise offer, announced late Thursday.
Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy called it a bid by Moscow to get a break in the fighting “to step up the war.”
“They want to use Christmas as cover to halt the offensive of our boys in Donbas at least for a while and redeploy their military vehicles, ammunition and mobilized men closer to our positions,” he said in his nightly address Thursday. “What will that bring? Just more casualties.”
Kyiv has demanded Moscow remove its troops from Ukraine as a condition for any cease-fire.
“I’m reluctant to respond to anything Putin says,” US President Joe Biden said in response to a question about the offer. “I found it interesting - he was ready to bomb hospitals and nurseries and churches on the 25th and New Year’s — I mean, I think he’s trying to find some oxygen.”
