I am pleased to announce that there will be a THREE DAY CEASEFIRE (May 9th, 10th, and 11th) in the War between Russia and Ukraine. The Celebration in Russia is for Victory Day but, likewise, in Ukraine, because they were also a big part and factor of World War II. This Ceasefire will include a suspension of all kinetic activity, and also a prison swap of 1,000 prisoners from each Country. This request was made directly by me, and I very much appreciate its agreement by President Vladimir Putin and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Hopefully, it is the beginning of the end of a very long, deadly, and hard fought War. Talks are continuing on ending this Major Conflict, the biggest since World War II, and we are getting closer and closer every day. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

“… also a prison swap of 1,000 prisoners from each Country….”

That’s good. And I’m glad that it is to be an EQUAL swap of prisoners. When exchanges of dead bodies is done it seems always to be a large number of Ukrainian deceased remains are turned over to Ukraine and, in return, only a minuscule number of Russian bodies are turned over. Anyhow, I’ll be glad to see this “brother’s war” ended and the killing stopped.

“I am pleased to announce that there will be a THREE DAY CEASEFIRE (May 9th, 10th, and 11th) in the War between Russia and Ukraine.” I wish you would announce all parties involved had come to an agreement for a permanent ceasefire.

A three-day ceasefire in a war that’s been going on for four years and will continue indefinitely with no end in sight.

Okay...faint clapping.

He certainly has his enemies confused and while those same folks say he’s a fool, in the end the joke is always on them.

Big news. Hope it is the beginning of the end of the stupid war.

If a more lasting ceasefire can be wrangled, much the better.

Rooster taking credit for the sunrise. He had nothing to do with it.... assuming he isn’t just making it up.

The end is coming sooner than Putin realizes.

Russia is running out of troops to send to the Ukrainian meat-grinder. And, Ukraine is never going to run out of killer drones which do most of the fighting for Ukraine.

Yeah, your schtick is beginning to become tiresome.

Any movement toward peace is a plus.

He’s an idiot. Russia announced that they would have a Victory Day truce, and if Ukraine attacked the Moscow parade, they were going to unleash a massive missile attack on downtown Kiev that they have always avoided. They formally notified all foreign embassies to leave town immediately if Kiev attacks the parade.

Trump takes a break from the golden ballroom and raising gasoline prices to rush out and claim credit for what was already happening.
