Moscow Defends Short Break in Ukraine War and Ignores Calls for Lasting Ceasefire

Russia officially rejected the proposal for a prolonged ceasefire in the war against Ukraine, opting instead to suggest a truce of just three days in May. According to the Kremlin, the measure would have a symbolic character, linked to the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II, while Ukraine and its allies criticize the initiative as insufficient.

Kremlin Limits Proposal to Three Days

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov announced that Russia would not accept a lasting ceasefire at this time. Instead, Moscow proposed a short truce of three days, from May 8 to 10, during the celebrations for victory in World War II. The information was published by Exame, reinforcing that, for the Russian government, the lack of response to Moscow’s concerns makes a broader agreement unfeasible.

Peskov made it clear that without guarantees that meet Russian interests, there is no chance for a longer ceasefire. According to him, the suggestion of a limited truce would be a “gesture of goodwill,” not a commitment to actually halt military operations.

Ukraine and Allies React and Demand Real Ceasefire

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky rejected Moscow’s proposal, characterizing the three-day truce as a “political maneuver.” According to him, Ukraine will only accept a real ceasefire that definitively ends the violence. Zelensky also called for greater involvement from European leaders to pressure Russia in this regard, as highlighted by Exame.

According to the Ukrainian government, a temporary ceasefire would not resolve the growing humanitarian crisis in the affected regions and could even be used as a strategy for Russian military repositioning.

United States Supports Indefinite Ceasefire

The U.S. position is in stark contrast to the Russian proposal. According to CNN Brasil, the White House stated that it supports the implementation of a complete and indefinite ceasefire in Ukraine. For Washington, short breaks in fighting only prolong the suffering of the civilian population and delay the chances of an effective diplomatic solution.

Even under external pressure, the Kremlin stood firm on the limited proposal, leaving uncertainty about the next chapters of the war.
