Why Putin has suddenly offered an ‘Easter truce’ in Ukraine – and the interesting way it’s being presented | World News

Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a 30-hour ceasefire, marking the first significant pause in hostilities since the Ukraine conflict began. This truce, however, falls short of the 30-day ceasefire proposed by the U.S. and is seen as a tactical move to placate growing frustrations from American officials, particularly Donald Trump, without offering genuine concessions. Analysts suggest this gesture is intended to position Putin as a peacemaker while maintaining military dominance, rather than reflecting a true commitment to peace.
