We did not see clearly formulated initiative regarding "Easter ceasefire" from Zelenskyy – Peskov
The Kremlin did not see a clear initiative in the words of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy regarding an "Easter ceasefire."
This was stated by the spokesperson for the Russian dictator, Dmitry Peskov, Censor.NET reports, citing Russian media.
Easter ceasefire
"From those statements by Zelenskyy that we have read, we did not see a clearly formulated initiative regarding an ‘Easter ceasefire’," Peskov said.
According to him, Zelenskyy spoke about readiness and willingness to agree to "at least some kind of ceasefire, at least an Easter one."
Peace, not a ceasefire
"Zelenskyy must take responsibility and make the appropriate decision so that we reach peace, not a ceasefire," the spokesperson for the Russian dictator said.
He also claimed that the Ukrainian authorities allegedly "desperately need any ceasefire," as the situation on the front is supposedly not in their favor.
"Therefore, Zelenskyy can and must make a timely decision; later he will have to do it at a higher price," he added.
