The Kremlin rejected Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's call for a 30-day ceasefire after the Ukrainian leader criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin's proposal for a three-day pause in the war in Ukraine to coincide with the annual Victory Day celebrations in Moscow.
The ceasefire proposed by Russia would take place from May 8 to 10, when Russia marks the 80th anniversary of its victory over Nazi Germany in World War II. Zelensky questioned the need to wait until then for a ceasefire, saying it was a move only to provide Putin with silence for his parade.
"We value human lives, not parades," Zelensky said in his evening address, proposing an immediate, complete and unconditional ceasefire for 30 days.
A proposal from the United States for an unconditional ceasefire, to which Ukraine had agreed, also remains an option, Zelensky reiterated.
"Russia knows exactly what to do and how to respond: to honestly stop the attacks ," he said.
Ukraine's foreign minister earlier said the Kremlin's announcement on April 28 was disingenuous and that a ceasefire should begin immediately. Russia's response on April 29, however, was to reject the longer-term immediate ceasefire, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov saying that several issues needed to be resolved first.
"Without answers to these questions, it is difficult to enter into a long-term ceasefire ," he said.
Putin has previously stated, during negotiations over the American proposal, that the plan should contain clauses prohibiting Ukraine from using the pause to regroup and arm itself, as well as a ban on Western arms supplies to Kiev. He has offered no compromises on Russia's part in return.
It is the second time this month that the Kremlin has called for a ceasefire. A proposal for an Easter holiday earlier this month was largely ignored as Russia and Ukraine continued to lash out at each other. As is the case every year during his presidency, Putin will lead a military parade in Red Square on May 9, Victory Day, celebrating the Soviet role in defeating Germany.
In recent years, he has used the occasion to glorify Soviet and Russian history while criticizing the West. The celebration comes as Russia's invasion of Ukraine, now the largest land war in Europe since World War II, continues unabated into its fourth year. Russia's losses, in killed and wounded, are now believed to be greater than all the losses it has suffered in all the conflicts it has fought since 1945.
Ministria ruse e Mbrojtjes tha se njësitë e saj të mbrojtjes ajrore shkatërruan 51 dronë ukrainas brenda më pak se tre orësh në mbrëmjen e 28 prillit. Një deklaratë e ministrisë e postuar në Telegram tha se njësitë e saj kishin shkatërruar 40 dronë mbi rajonin perëndimor të Kurskut. Dronë të tjerë u shkatërruan mbi rajonin qendror Oryol dhe Belgorod në jug, si dhe mbi Gadishullin e Krimesë dhe Detin e Zi.
Përpjekjet për të arritur një armëpushim dypalësh ose një marrëveshje më të gjerë paqeje u përshpejtuan pasi presidenti amerikan, Donald Trump, mori detyrën në janar, duke premtuar se do ta përfundonte luftën brenda 24 orëve. Paraardhësi i tij, Joe Biden, refuzoi të angazhohej në bisedime të thella me Moskën për aq kohë sa pushtimi vazhdon.
Megjithëse Trump ka hapur bisedime të drejtpërdrejta me Moskën, zyrtarët rusë kanë kërkuar të zgjerojnë negociatat për të përfshirë jo vetëm konfliktin në Ukrainë, por edhe marrëdhëniet më të gjera dypalëshe midis Uashingtonit dhe Moskës. Rusia dhe Ukraina ranë dakord për një armëpushim të kufizuar në mars, por të dy palët kanë vazhduar të sulmojnë njëra-tjetrën.
Në fushëbetejë, forcat ruse kanë shfrytëzuar përparësinë, si në numër njerëzish ashtu edhe në armatim, për të lodhur trupat e Ukrainës. Gjatë fundjavës, në margjinat e funeralit të Papa Françeskut në Vatikan, Trump pati takimin e tij të parë ballë për ballë me Zelenskyn që nga shkurti, kur bisedimet në Zyrën Ovale dështuan mes tensioneve.
Trump tha se takimi kishte shkuar mirë, por shtoi se mendonte se Zelensky ishte i gatshëm të dorëzonte Gadishullin e Krimesë të Ukrainës te Rusia si një kompromis diçka që udhëheqësi ukrainas ka deklaruar prej kohësh se nuk do ta bënte kurrë. Më vonë, Trump i bëri thirrje Putinit të ndalojë të shtënat dhe të pranojë një marrëveshje paqeje. Zëdhënësja e Shtëpisë së Bardhë, Karoline Leavitt, e përforcoi këtë deklaratë më 28 prill.
“Trump dëshiron të shohë një armëpushim të përhershëm. Unë e kuptoj se Vladimir Putin, këtë mëngjes, ofroi një armëpushim të përkohshëm. Presidenti ka bërë të qartë se dëshiron të shohë një armëpushim të përhershëm për të ndalur vrasjet, për të ndalur gjakderdhjen," tha ai.
Ekspertët thonë se Putini po e zvarrit procesin e negociatave sepse forcat e tij kanë epërsi në fushëbetejë dhe një armëpushim në vijën aktuale të kontaktit do ta linte atë pa arritur një nga qëllimet e tij kryesore, pushtimin e plotë të katër rajoneve ukrainase që Moska pretendon se ka aneksuar: Donjckun, Luhanskun, Zaporizhjan dhe Hersonin.
They add that handing over the territory to Russia would be politically and constitutionally impossible for Zelensky. Ukrainian citizens and lawmakers appear to be strongly opposed to the idea. Russia wants any peace deal to recognize its control over almost 20 percent of Ukraine, including Crimea. It also wants Ukraine to disarm and be kept out of NATO. Moscow has also rejected Kiev's request for a Western peacekeeping force to monitor any ceasefire agreement./REL
