Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday declared a three-day ceasefire in the war with Ukraine next month to mark the 80th anniversary of World War II Victory Day.

The Kremlin said the 72-hour ceasefire would run from the beginning of May 8 and last through the end of May 10.

"All military actions are suspended for this period," the Kremlin said in a statement. "Russia believes that the Ukrainian side should follow this example."

"In the event of violations by the Ukrainian side, Russia's armed forces will give an adequate and effective response," the statement said.

If Russia can unilaterally declare a 3 day cease fire, can Ukraine do so for 30 days?

Watch the Ukies attack the usual parade at Moscow.

3-day cease fire only if the commanders at the front are told. Likely many will not be told and others will ignore it.

Putin is concerned about getting his victory day parade attached by drones. So, he is saying he gets to have a parade when the marching troops are not killed. Meanwhile after the 11th Putin goes back to killing civiltans.

Ukraine can declare a cease-fire on their own, but it's 100% certainty that Putin would not acknowledge it and would use it for hundreds of missile and drone attacks. Terrorists do not know what a cease-fire is about, and Putin is the biggest and most deadly terrorist in modern times.

Only a moron and a suicidal mania would declare a cease-fire of their own against Putin/Russia.

Putin is the only one attacking civilian targets in this war. Zelensky would not dare do such a thing, and if he did it would be at the expense of complete loss in good-will and military aid.

You have no idea about who the real terrorist is in this war.

Roflol.

Your Democrat’s Russian Derangement Syndrome is on display, again. Your posts were at least entertaining, washing machine chips, Ghost of Kiev,fighting with shovels, running out of missiles any day now, etc, etc.

Roflol.

Yeah, wars and terrorism are laugh-worthy endeavors.

“Russia declares 3-day ceasefire in Ukraine for WWII Victory Day”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Russia’s announcement of a so-called “three-day ceasefire” for WWII Victory Day should fool no one. Every time Moscow has declared a “ceasefire” in this war, it has used the opportunity to intensify its attacks, not pause them.

History shows that Russian “ceasefires” are not about peace — they are tactical deceptions, designed to regroup, reposition, and unleash even more brutal assaults.

Ukrainians must remain vigilant. Brace yourselves.

[adorno]

Your Democrat’s Russian Derangement Syndrome is on display, again.

By your definition, all (or most) republicans are now democrats with Russian derangement syndrome? You have no idea about how many republicans feel the same as I do about the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Try to get informed and not come across as stupid as you sound now.

Your posts were at least entertaining, washing machine chips, Ghost of Kiev,fighting with shovels, running out of missiles any day now, etc, etc.

If war and terrorism and murdering of innocents is entertaining to you, you are the lowest form of human there is, and perhaps not human at all.

[adorno]

Exactly right!

Russia uses cease-fires as a war tactic. A Russian ceasefire is the equivalent of a sneak attack.

Israel had the equivalent of a cease-fire before Oct 7, 2023.

[POGO163]

I’m gonna help you out here: Putin’s cease fire is to start MAY 8.

[crz]

Roflol!

Another tuff guy.

[Kazan]

Yes and things will end up just as I predicted -- Ukraine will break the ceasefire immediately and blame Russia for firing back.

Help yourself and get your head out of your ass if you think the Ukrainians can be trusted abide by any agreement.

Another tuff guy.

People have to be 'tuff' when dealing with terrorists and their sympathizers. Ask Trump how that works.

Yes and things will end up just as I predicted -- Ukraine will break the ceasefire immediately and blame Russia for firing back.

You're not paying attention to the facts.

Everything you said, applies 100% to how Putin operates.

Your alternate reality world is exactly the same as the bubble that democrats live in. Wake up!

[Wuli]

Putin will not keep his own “ceasefire”, for sure.
