Russian President Vladimir Putin has shown cautious support for a new ceasefire proposal aimed at ending the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. This proposal, put forth by the United States, is intended to last for 30 days and has already been accepted by Ukrainian officials earlier this week.
During a press conference, Putin emphasized that while he is in favor of the ceasefire, there are important details that need to be addressed first. He pointed out that the ceasefire should be part of a broader plan that tackles the underlying issues of the crisis. One of his main concerns is whether Ukraine will continue to receive military aid from Western nations if the fighting were to stop.
Putin’s remarks highlight the complexities surrounding the ceasefire discussions. He stated, “We are in favor of it, but there are nuances,” suggesting that further negotiations are essential before any agreement can be finalized.
Later today, Putin is expected to meet with Steve Witkoff, an envoy from President Donald Trump’s administration. This meeting could be pivotal in shaping the future of the ceasefire talks and determining the next steps in the ongoing conflict.
As the situation develops, the international community will be watching closely to see how these negotiations unfold and whether they can lead to a lasting peace in the region.
