Russian President Vladimir Putin has declared a three-day ceasefire in Ukraine, starting on May 8, 2025, to mark the 80th anniversary of the victory over Nazism during World War II. The announcement was made by the Kremlin on April 28, 2025.
According to Reuters, the ceasefire will last from May 8 to 10 and is intended to provide an opportunity for reflection and remembrance of the victims of the war. However, this move has caused mixed reactions in Ukraine and on the international stage. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has expressed doubts about the sincerity of this ceasefire, describing it as an attempt to manipulate public opinion and buy time.
This ceasefire comes after a tense period and following a previous ceasefire announced by Russia over Easter, which was also accompanied by criticism and disagreement over its effectiveness and goals.
