This was announced by U.S. President Donald Trump on the social network Truth Social.
"The U.S. calls for, ideally, a 30-day unconditional ceasefire. Hopefully, an acceptable ceasefire will be observed, and both countries will be held accountable for respecting the sanctity of these direct negotiations. If the ceasefire is not respected, the U.S. and its partners will impose further sanctions", - Trump stated.
He also once again reminded that "thousands of young soldiers are dying on a weekly basis, and everybody should want it to STOP".
Trump noted that as president, he remains committed to securing peace between russia and Ukraine together with the Europeans, and that it will be a lasting peace.
"This ceasefire must ultimately build toward a peace agreement. It can all be done very quickly, and I will be available on a moment’s notice if my services are needed", - emphasized the U.S. president.
Zelensky told Trump during their conversation that Ukraine is ready for a ceasefire and negotiations with russia.
