Easter Truce Announced by Putin is 'Goodwill Gesture' Towards Both Kiev and Washington, French Journo Says
"The ball is now in Ukraine's court. It would be extremely inappropriate for Kiev to violate this ceasefire instead of accepting it under the present conditions," French journalist Laurent Brayard told Sputnik Africa.
According to the speaker, Kiev's actions on the ground may differ.
"As far as Russia is concerned, I know that orders will be respected. Any violators will be punished. As for Kiev, the situation is likely to be more complicated, given the banditry of this army," he emphasized.
Amid peace negotiations with Washington, the gesture is also a signal to the Trump administration that Moscow is ready to move forward, the journalist added.
