Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed skepticism about Russia’s willingness to adhere to any agreements. He stated that Ukraine would continue its military actions, only reciprocating if Russia genuinely refrains from attacking key Ukrainian infrastructure. Zelenskyy emphasized the need for a reliable long-term ceasefire and called for specific commitments from international partners.
In light of recent comments by former President Donald Trump advocating for a halt to Ukrainian attacks, the Kremlin praised his stance but remained ambiguous about whether they would reciprocate if Kyiv agreed to stop its strikes. Zelenskyy highlighted that past temporary ceasefires had not prevented subsequent attacks by Russia, and he emphasized the importance of a substantive resolution rather than short-term measures.
