U.S. President Donald Trump expressed that the three-day unilateral ceasefire proposed to Ukraine by Russian President Vladimir Putin, while it may seem insufficient, has a significant impact. According to Trump, Moscow is interested in reaching an agreement to end the conflict in the region.
In his statements, Trump mentioned: "As you know, President Putin wants to reach an agreement." This suggests that there is a willingness on the part of Russia to seek a negotiated solution to the conflict in Ukraine. Although the proposed ceasefire is short-term, it could be an important first step towards lasting peace in the region.
It is important to highlight that tensions between Russia and Ukraine have been a cause of international concern for a long time. Any gesture, however small, that may help to de-escalate violence is welcome. Putin's proposal could be an opportunity to begin a dialogue that leads to a peaceful and lasting solution in the Ukrainian conflict.
