Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has demanded full details of Russia’s proposal for a short‑term ceasefire, insisting that transparency is essential before Kyiv can consider any agreement.
Zelenskyy emphasized that Ukraine will not accept vague or unilateral terms, calling for clarity on the scope, duration, and enforcement mechanisms of the proposed truce.
He underscored that any ceasefire must prioritize the protection of civilians and ensure that Russia does not exploit pauses in fighting to regroup or reinforce its positions.
The demand comes amid heightened international scrutiny, with allies urging that negotiations be conducted openly and in line with Ukraine’s sovereignty and security interests.
