Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has rejected Russian President Vladimir Putin's proposal for a three-day ceasefire, dismissing it as a 'theatrical show' meant to improve Russia's image rather than achieve peace.
Zelensky argued that such a short truce would not contribute to meaningful negotiations or a lasting resolution to the conflict. Instead, he voiced support for a U.S.-backed plan calling for an unconditional 30-day ceasefire, which he believes is necessary for genuine progress. The Ukrainian leader accused Russia of using the brief ceasefire as a publicity stunt to appear less isolated internationally.
The situation underscores ongoing tensions and the lack of trust between the two countries.
