President Donald Trump urges Ukraine and Russia to enter into a 30 -day conditionless ceasefire. The proposal was put on the table by the Americans as early as March. Ukraine has already said yes, while Russia has set a number of conditions to agree to it. The new call comes on Trump’s own social media, Truth Social. – The talks with Russia and Ukraine continue. The United States ideally asks a 30 -day unconditional ceasefire. “Hopefully a ceasefire will be met,” the US president writes. He further writes that a ceasefire should pave the way for a peace agreement. Breaking its own ceasefire Russian President Vladimir Putin has declared a three-day ceasefire in connection with the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II. The ceasefire started at midnight Russian time on May 8. Today, May 9, there will be a major military parade in Moscow, including the Chinese president and other invited heads of state present. Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyj has replied that such a short ceasefire will only be “theater”. Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen tells Denmark’s Radio that the Russian proposal is coming to ensure that Ukrainian drone bombs interfere with the great parade. According to Ukrainian authorities, the self-proclaimed Russian ceasefire has broken a number of times in the last 24 hours, where there have been a number of drone and rocket attacks against Ukrainian positions along the front line. Russian authorities come with charges of drone attacks the other way. Also in connection with Easter, Russia declared a ceasefire, but still continued the attacks, according to various sources. Trump and Zelenskyj on the phone Donald Trump and Volodyymyr Zelenskyj talked on the phone on Thursday American time. According to a Ukrainian official, the conversation went very well. The two men have for many years had a strained relationship, and it peaked with the scolding in the White House earlier this spring. Lately, the relationship seems to have improved, not least after the conversation in St. Peter’s Church when they participated in the funeral of Pope Frans. The 20 -minute conversation focused on “diplomacy and ceasefire,” according to the official. Zelenskyj says he is ready to enter into the proposed 30 day -long ceasefire “in this minute,” according to the Reuters news agency. He should also have communicated to Trump that he is ready for talks with the Russian president in “Any Format,” but assuming that a ceasefire is in place. – But the (ceasefire ed.) Must be real … 30 days that can be the beginning of many years of peace. A ceasefire, which is long -lasting and reliable, will be a real sign that we are moving in the direction of peace, the president said in the daily video speech. Threatening sanctions Donald Trump has been accused of taking Putin’s party in the war between the two neighboring countries, but the Americans have clearly become less patient in recent weeks with the Russians. In the last post of Truth Social, Trump threatens new sanctions, and the threat is interpreted to be a message to Putin. “If the ceasefire is not complied with, the United States and its partners will introduce further sanctions,” Trump writes. It is not long since both Trump and Vice President JD Vance threatened with resignation from the negotiations, if the parties do not show a willingness to progress. Now the president still promises US efforts. “As president, I want to remain committed to securing a peace between Russia and Ukraine with Europeans,” Trump writes. Trump and Zelenskyj also discussed the mineral agreement that the two countries have entered into, according to the Ukrainian presidential office. Great telephone activity on Thursday was obviously the big diplomatic “ring day”. For Volodyymyr Zelenskyj was also in a telephone conference with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre and ten other Northern European leaders – who also spoke to Donald Trump on the phone from the White House. The Norwegian prime minister is hosting the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF). I am a security cooperation between ten northern European countries; The United Kingdom, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Sweden and Norway. The leaders of the countries are gathered in Oslo on Thursday and Friday. It was Støre and Finnish President Alexander Stubb who took the initiative for the talks with Zelenskyj and Trump. -During the JEF leaders’ dinner in Oslo tonight, President Stubb and I initiated talks with President Trump and President Zelenskyj, respectively. We discussed the situation in Ukraine and the opportunities for a 30-day ceasefire, Støre wrote on Facebook late Thursday, according to NTB. – Things are going on, Stubb wrote on X. Volodymyr Zelenskyj also spoke with Germany’s newly elected federal Chancellor Friedrich Merz, who was also on the phone with Donald Trump. According to a government spokesman, Merz and Trump agree to work together to end the war in Ukraine. Merz should have emphasized that the US mediation attempts must take place with France, the United Kingdom and the EU. Published 09.05.2025, at. 08.13 Updated 09.05.2025, at. 09.46
