Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy criticized Russia's recent proclamation of a limited ceasefire, describing it as 'strange and inappropriate' in light of ongoing military actions. The ceasefire was announced to coincide with Russia's World War Two commemorations, yet Zelenskiy noted that Russian forces continued their attacks, including drone strikes and missile assaults. He pointed out that despite the ceasefire, Ukraine received only new threats and strikes from Russia. As peace negotiations progress, with Ukraine's chief negotiator Rustem Umerov meeting U.S. officials in Miami, Zelenskiy stressed the importance of a strong U.S. stance against Russian aggression to honor those who fought against Nazi Germany. He also expressed satisfaction with Ukraine's recent military successes against Russian assets, stating that Ukraine would continue its long-range sanctions in response to Russian actions.
