Russia not ready for ceasefire despite public statements - Zelensky

From what the Russian side has publicly stated following the negotiations between the US and Russian presidents, it is clear that Russia is not ready for a real ceasefire.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced this during an online press conference on Tuesday evening, as reported by an Ukrinform correspondent.

“Much of what has been publicly voiced by the Russian side indicates that they are not really ready for a ceasefire. They have once again confirmed that, as we have said, as we have warned our American partners, they do not intend to end this war. And this is obvious. They are not ready even for the first step towards a ceasefire, since they will discuss some additional conditions,” Zelensky noted.
