Ukraine and Putin’s allies urge to commit to a 30 -day shooting or to face new penalties – national

Leaders of four major European countries threatened to raise pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin if he did not accept the ceasefire for 30 days Ukraine They offered Saturday in a strong offer of unit with Kyiv.

The leaders of France, the United Kingdom, Germany and Poland said their suggestion for a ceasefire was supported on Monday with the support of US President Donald Trump, who briefed them on the phone earlier in the day.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Saturday to CNN, Moscow will need to look at the proposal. Earlier that day, Peskov repeated that Russia’s claim that it was ready for peace talks with Ukraine “without preconditions”, and he accused Kiev of banning these.

The ceasefire in Russia ends for a period of three days, and announced on the eighty anniversary of the victory over Nazi Germany on Saturday, and Ukraine says that the Russian forces have violated it over and over again. In March, the United States suggested an immediate limited truce for 30 days, which accepted Ukraine, but the Kremlin withstood the conditions more than his desire.

Ukrainian President Folodimir Zellinski, speaking with correspondents alongside European leaders in Kiev, described their meeting as a “very important signal.”

In a joint statement, as published on the official Zelenskyy website, the five leaders called for a ceasefire “at least 30 days” from Monday, to make way for a diplomatic payment to end the war.

“The unlawful ceasefire cannot be subject to the definition of any conditions. If Russia is calling these conditions, this cannot be considered an effort to prolong the war and undermine diplomacy.”

French President Emmanuel Macron said that the United States will take the initiative to monitor the proposed ceasefire, with the support of European countries, and threatened “tremendous sanctions … prepared and coordinated, between Europeans and Americans”, in the event of Russia’s violation.

Macron traveled to Kiev with British Prime Minister Kiir Starmer, German Chancellor Friedrich Mirz and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk.

“This is Europe ascending and showing our solidarity with Ukraine,” Starmer said.

Retired Lieutenant General Keith Kelog, Trump’s special envoy to Ukraine, said on Saturday that the “comprehensive” ceasefire for 30 days, and covers attacks of air, language, sea and infrastructure, “will begin the process of ending the greatest and longest war in Europe since World War II,” said retired Lieutenant General Keel Keel, Trump’s Special Envoy to Ukraine, on Saturday.

Meanwhile, on Saturday, Russian President Vladimir Putin held a series of bilateral talks with foreign officials who attended their Moscow celebrations in the defeat of Nazi Germany, in a clear attempt to emphasize the failure of the West to isolate it on the world stage. Among the concerns of Putin, among them Lam, the Secretary -General of the Communist Party in Vietnam, the leaders of Zimbabwe, Burkina Faso and the Palestinian Authority.

Europe threatens more sanctions if Russia ignores the ceasefire

The progress of ending the war for three years has started to reach the months that passed on Trump’s return to the White House, and his previous allegations failed to penetrate an imminent in achieving its fruits. Trump has already pushed Ukraine to waive lands to Russia to end the war, and threatened to move away if the deal became very difficult.

Since the beginning of the US -mediating talks, Russia has maintained attacks along the 1000 -km front line (600 miles), including deadly strikes in residential areas without clear military targets.

The ceasefire will include a ceasefire to fight on the ground, the sea and in the air. European leaders threatened to lift sanctions, including the two energy and banking sectors in Russia, if Putin did not comply.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrei Sibha said the priority is to make Russia very expensive for the continuation of the fighting in Ukraine.

When asked how the monitoring mechanism would work, Siba told her Associated Press that the details are still in discussion.

In addressing doubts about whether the new sanctions against Moscow, which have so far managed to continue fighting in the war, Mirz said, “Almost all member states of the European Union and a large alliance of wishing all over the world are determined to enforce these sanctions even if our initiative fails at the weekend.”

The leaders also discussed security guarantees for Ukraine.

Building military capabilities for Kev will be a major deterrent against Russia and requires providing Ukraine with strong quantities of weapons to deter future attacks and invest in the defense sector. Macron said that a force consisting of foreign forces could also be deployed as an additional “reassurance” measure.

He said details of the potential European publishing operations to Ukraine are still seized. No mention of NATO membership, Kyiv’s option is still the best to ensure security.

Earlier on Saturday, European leaders joined a ceremony in the field of independence in Kiev on the occasion of the eighties of the end of World War II. They lit the candles along with Zelinski in a memorial for a temporary science of Ukrainian soldiers and civilians who have fallen since the invasion of Russia.

Russian attacks continue

Local officials said that the Russian bombing in the northern Sumi region in Ukraine during the past day killed three residents and wounded four others. Another civilian died on Saturday, while a Russian drone hit the southern city of Jupson, according to regional ruler Olikander Brocodine.

On Friday, the American embassy in Kiev warned of a “possible” Russian air attack in the coming days, without providing details.

In November, Russia gave a brief warning to the United States before the first time hit Ukraine through its medium -range ballistic missile in Oreshnik, a vynsonic weapon that Putin claimed to travel at a speed of 10 times the speed of sound.

The Ukrainian Telegram channels linked the embassy warning to reports of an imminent ban by Moscow on the Military Training Complex in Kabustin Yar and the firing of the missiles. A similar flight has already banned the November strike. There was no immediate comment from Russian officials.

Trump said last week that he suspects that Putin wants to end his war in Ukraine, expressing new doubts that a peace agreement can be reached soon, and alluded to more sanctions against Russia.

European Ukraine allies view its fate as essential for the continent’s security, and pressure is now rising to find ways to support Kiev militarily, regardless of whether Trump is withdrawing.
