Trump Advocates Ceasefire Between Ukraine and Russia by Easter
U.S. President Donald Trump is actively advocating for a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia to be established by Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025. This initiative aims to halt hostilities and pave the way for comprehensive peace negotiations.
To facilitate this, U.S. and Russian officials have commenced talks in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, focusing on achieving a limited ceasefire, particularly concerning energy infrastructure. Despite these efforts, significant differences remain, and the Kremlin has tempered expectations, indicating that negotiations will be challenging.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has engaged with President Trump, presenting the harsh realities faced by Ukrainians due to the conflict. While this has led to some tensions, it has also resulted in renewed U.S. support for a ceasefire proposal.
However, recent developments have cast doubts on the immediacy of a truce. A Russian missile strike in Sumy, which resulted in civilian casualties, has led Ukrainian officials to question Russia’s commitment to peace talks. They have labeled Russia’s peace overtures as insincere, given the continued military aggression.
The White House remains cautiously optimistic about achieving a ceasefire by Easter, acknowledging potential delays due to the complex nature of the negotiations. The administration is prepared for extended discussions to address the substantial differences between the involved parties.
