Moscow: The US negotiators traveled to Russia on Thursday, so that Ukraine could introduce its plan for a 30-day ceasefire, but Moscow in advance warned that it would deny any temporary deal that “breath” to Kiev.
Ukraine agreed to the plan during a conversation with US officials in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, as US President Donald Trump pushed for a rapid end to the struggle over three years.

“It once again shows that Russia tries to prolong war and postpone peace as long as possible.”
‘Temporary Breath’
Setting its red lines ahead of the talks, Russia rejected foreign peace soldiers in Ukraine and gave relief to possible sanctions.
Maskov said that Moscow protects any agreement long -term and secure his interests, rather than a temporary deal that would “breathe” Ukraine.
“This is what we are trying. A peaceful disposal that takes into account the legitimate interests of our country, ”Kremlin colleague Yuri Usakov told a state TV reporter.
Ushkov called the 30-day ceasefire proposal a “hasty” plan that “is not in favor of long-term disposal”.
“This would be nothing more than a temporary breath for the Ukrainian army,” he said after a call with Waltz.
Russia has also rejected foreign peace soldiers deployed in Ukraine as part of a ceasefire or long -term security guarantee for Kiev.
Ukraine has asked its European colleagues to deploy their European colleagues to deploy military “contingency” over their territory after the struggle ends to protect from Russia to save them from future attacks.
