Zelenski insists on the offer of a 30 -day truce
The president of Ukraine, Volodimir Zelenski, has affirmed tonight, in his message to the nation, that his country continues to maintain the offer of a 30 -day truce in the war with Russia, while the Russian exterior ministry rejected the insinuations that Moscow opposes or puts obstacles to a cessation of the hostilities of one month.
Zelenski launched the message to the nation hours before he entered into force, at midnight Russian (23.00 in peninsular Spain), the high three -day fire decreed by the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the victory over Nazi Germany. Putin has not accepted at any time the 30 -day fire that Zelenski has been proposing for weeks.
“The proposal of Ukraine of Cesar the attacks and establishing a high fire of at least 30 days is still standing. We do not withdraw this proposal, which would give a chance to diplomacy,” Zelenski stressed in his daily televised speech. Russia, he said, has not responded to the offer. “This clearly demonstrates to everyone what is the source of war,” he added.
In an apparent recognition of drone attacks launched against Moscow and other Russian cities in the last two days, on the eve of the great parade of victory in the red square of the Russian capital, Zelenski has affirmed that “it is absolutely of justice that the Russian skies, the heavens of the aggressor, do not have calm today [por el miércoles]”During the day, air defenses intercepted 14 Ukrainian drones, according to the mayor of Moscow, Serguéi Sobianin.
The original proposal of a 30 -day truce departed from the US and Ukraine, which is on the defensive on the battlefield in recent months, hastened to adhere, but Russia has affirmed that it will only accept a truce thus if certain conditions are given and mechanisms are introduced so that it can be verified, something difficult to do in a front of more than 1,000 kilometers that runs through the east and southern Ukraine.
