Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a temporary ceasefire in Ukraine for Easter, beginning on Saturday evening and lasting until Sunday midnight for humanitarian reasons. Putin stated that Russian troops should be prepared to respond to any violations of the truce from the enemy. There was no immediate response from Ukrainian officials. This announcement came after President Donald Trump mentioned that negotiations between Ukraine and Russia were reaching a critical point. Secretary of State Marco Rubio also indicated that the United States may be prepared to move on from the peace deal efforts if there was no progress in the near future. These statements followed talks among U.S., Ukrainian, and European officials in Paris. The situation is evolving, and further updates are expected.
