After failing in the first round, America again tried to stop the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. To that end, US President Donald Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner arrived in Moscow on Saturday. President Vladimir Putin made a big announcement as a sign of peace as US ambassadors arrived in Russia. He informed that the Russian army will not attack Ukraine in the next 3 days.
Russia and Ukraine have been at war for 4 years. Putin did not listen to the pleas from all corners of the world to stop the war. Instead, every time Trump announced a cease-fire, Putin escalated his attacks. In the midst of this situation, it is heard that Trump's special envoy is going to Russia for the purpose of ceasefire. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Friday that Kiev would not carry out any airstrikes during the visit of the US envoys and urged Moscow to do the same.
Steve Wittkoff and Jared Kushner went to Moscow with a US proposal for a permanent ceasefire. However, no details have been given on what those plans are.
“There will be no airstrikes from our side, and Russia will have to do the same in the time necessary to handle these negotiations and the logistics of the US visit,” Zelensky wrote in the X-Handle. After Zelensky's announcement, Putin officially announced on Saturday that there will be no attack by Russia for the next 3 days.
