Ukraine signals readiness for Easter ceasefire, Zelenskyy

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that Ukraine is ready for a ceasefire during the Easter holidays. Asked by the journalists, he also commented on whether Russia could strengthen its positions during such a pause.

"We have supported any formats to end the war, you know that, but only when they (Russia - ed.) do not compromise the dignity and independence of our state. A ceasefire, in any form, as we discussed today, whether full or limited to energy infrastructure, we are ready for a ceasefire during the Easter holidays,” the President emphasized.

"But of course, we are ready for any compromises, except those involving our dignity and sovereignty. As for strengthening positions over these 2–3 days, Russia will not be able to strengthen anything in that time. We remember what they promised in three days, and what they failed to achieve,” Zelenskyy added.
