"President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s Easter Ceasefire proposal has a chance to be put into action. Ukrainians deserve a festive day free of terror.

We will see where and when the silence starts working and we are ready to reciprocate on our side.

Our position is that there is no need to resume strikes at all. A lasting ceasefire would pave the way for genuine diplomacy to end this war that Russia will never win and must finally stop.

We believe that a ceasefire is the right strategy to advance diplomatic efforts – whether we are talking about the Middle East or Russian aggression against Ukraine", Ukraine’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Andrii Sybiha has stressed.
