A three-day pause in attacks on Kyiv was announced while a new attempt to bring Russia and Ukraine closer was underway. The decision comes in the context of a diplomatic mission to relaunch peace negotiations between the two countries.
Russian President Vladimir Putin was meeting at the Kremlin with Donald Trump's envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, during the announcement of this humanitarian pause. The Trump administration has been actively promoting mediation efforts in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The talks focus on the safety of the negotiation process, with the affirmation that every effort will be made to ensure that negotiations proceed safely. This three-day pause represents a symbolic gesture in the context of a conflict that has been ongoing for more than three years.
