Here’s what he said:👇 (1/9)
(2/9) Russia supports a 30-day ceasefire with Ukraine, but the key issue is what to do with the Ukrainian incursion in the Kursk region.
(3/9) He believes that, given the situation in Kursk, a ceasefire would be beneficial for Ukraine, as without it, they risk being physically blocked and left with only two options: surrender or die.
(4/9) Putin raised concerns about how the situation would be monitored if a ceasefire were declared: "How can we be guaranteed that nothing like this will happen?"
(5/9) He also highlighted other contentious issues along the front lines, where Russian forces are advancing on almost all fronts.
(6/9) Russia will negotiate the next steps for ending the conflict based on the situation on the ground.
(7/9) The president also said Ukraine might use the 30 days to continue forced mobilization and replenish its weapon supplies.
(8/9) The cessation of hostilities in Ukraine must lead to long-term peace and the resolution of the root causes of the crisis.
(9/9) Putin did not rule out discussing a ceasefire in Ukraine with US President Donald Trump, emphasizing that Ukraine should have urged the Americans to call for an end to hostilities, based on the situation on the ground.
