Ceasefire

Once the memorandum is approved, a ceasefire will take effect immediately, with both sides withdrawing to the agreed positions to begin implementing the agreement.

As previously reported, US Chargé d’affaires to Ukraine Julie Davis said that she and US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll had “extremely constructive” talks with the Ukrainian leadership regarding President Donald Trump’s vision for ending the war.

As a reminder, the Institute for the Study of War stated that the “peace plan” of the US and Russia, which allegedly consists of 28 points, means the actual surrender of Ukraine and creates conditions for new aggression by the Russian Federation.
