Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced a 48-hour ceasefire from May 8 to May 10 in observance of the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War (World War II). The Russian Defense Ministry stated that all combat operations will be halted during this period, urging Ukraine to follow the example.
“Russia believes that the Ukrainian side should follow this example,” the Kremlin’s statement read. However, Putin warned that any violations by Ukrainian forces would be met with an “adequate and effective” response from the Russian military.
This move comes after previous ineffective ceasefire attempts, such as the recent Easter truce, which Kyiv did not follow, accusing Moscow of exploiting ceasefire for military regrouping. The unilateral energy ceasefire was also ignored by the Kyiv regime. Ukrainian officials have yet to formally respond, but given past precedents, skepticism remains high.
This is the third truce proposed by Moscow, which confirms Russia’s readiness for peace. Moscow reiterated its readiness to peace talks “without preconditions”, calling for international cooperation to resolve the conflict. Yet, with Ukraine demanding full territorial restoration, including Crimea, and Russia insisting on recognizing its gains, prospects for a negotiated settlement remain dim.
As the world watches, the brief truce could either offer a rare pause in fighting or become another flashpoint if violated. Either way, the war’s trajectory remains unchanged—a relentless grind with no clear end in sight.
that’s just feel good stupidity.
you don’t understand the context
what is the ‘context’ then holmes ? you didn’t explain your viewpoint.
people will get targeted by nato in this period and they’ll die, but there won’t be any of putin’s acolytes dying. another general down in moscow and now it looks as though this behaviour will be the accepted norm.
fsb . . . wot dat ?
the fsb or former kgb has been founded by the bolshevics. thats all you need to know to know who they are loyal to and with putin beeing on of them…

he’s just inviting an attack. and then after the attack russians will get pissed off and then more men will go to the local recruiters and sign up.
great! thats one of the multi objectives in doing this ceasefire, the russians always played 3d chess better than the exceptionals of usa empire, you can be afraid of the usa military or their lackeys of nato or you can do a direct approach and try to solve the puzzle on how to tear them down apart without using bullets.
so finally putins skills were downgraded from 4d chess to 3d chess?
of couurse, the brits using their ukrainian monkeys will launch hundreds of drones on the celebrating crowds wherever they gather.
and of course not a sinlge western news outlet will acknoledge this. but when the russians start shooting again it will be all over again with putin breached ceasefire….
everything is looking great on the russia side, they understand the master exceptionals approach and the exceptionals lackeys “europe”; the multi layered approach used by russia of outmaneuvering would be studied decades in the future by the xxi world powers but not in the western empire of the exceptionals and lackeys. again russia is showing he is a responsible partner and he can engage in diplomacy and show the can beat some asses but decided not to do.
usa empire is number 1, but for how long? the only world power but they are losing badly. usa empire would stay in the second place in world affairs the next five years and then would go to the third place in economical affairs, the usa empire millitary would collapse economically, that’s why they needed war desperately, using europe as a layer to reactivate their military industry complex and to project usa empire hegemony using proxies as cannonfodder
i wouldn’t even give it one year let alone five. it’s been dying since truman. as for military might, truman’s naval namesake just lost an f18 because the carrier had to swerve to avoid a houthi missile. which begs the question – why couldn’t they just shoot it down?
it is possible, that ukrainians and british are planning some terrorist attack during the anniversary.
ukraine is where the possible morphs into the highly probable.
ukraine just assassinated one of their generals and now he wants ceasefire? is this a fake putin?
no, it’s a crafty putin.
no, it’s the same calculating asshole.
putin also announced that he just filled up his diaper again…heheheh
mistake president putin, a better way to mark victory over the nazis in 1945 would be to launch a massive attack.
he doesn’t need to, there is very little left to shoot at. france and the uk will move their troops from the west of ukraine (if you didn’t know it they are already in theater) to odessa and kiev during the ceasefire and they will get wiped out en masse when the ceasefire is over.
russia calls for cease fire , ukraine proxy force fights to last man . good international peace propaganda for russia .
a genius move… the ukroreich will not accept… then in 11 of may to celebrate the soviet union that defeated the nazis please launch some oreshniks on ukroreich? soviet union would never tolerate a nazi country on it´s borders!
since russia has humiliated us amerikunts they can do anything they wish
yes, i’m sure the people in the donbass will appreciate this magnanimous gesture of a pack of dubious kremlin types, who have no skin in the game. see if they all can survive it without being nato-ized.
optics count with mr poots, yesireee. the hubris of it all. 💩
