A two-day temporary ceasefire is about to take place on the Russia-Ukraine war that has been going on for the last 11 months. Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday ordered a ceasefire in Ukraine from 6 to 7 January. Russian spiritual leader Patriarch Kirill called for a ceasefire in Ukraine on January 6-7 over Orthodox Christmas, prompting Russia to suspend hostilities for two days. With this decision, US President Joe Biden taunted Vladimir Putin, saying that while ordering a temporary ceasefire, President Putin wanted to take a breather.
Biden taunts Putin on ceasefire
Joe Biden made a scathing comment on the Russian President, saying, 'I refrain from answering whatever Putin says. However, I found this decision of Putin interesting. Russian forces prepared to bombard hospitals and churches on 25 December and through the new year. And now they are talking about a ceasefire. Biden further said, 'I think they are looking for some oxygen by imposing a ceasefire.'
Russian troops should leave the territory occupied by Ukraine: Mykhailo Podolić
Following Putin's announcement of a ceasefire, Mykhailo Podolić, an adviser to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, tweeted a call for Russian forces to leave Ukrainian-occupied territories and then declare a 'temporary ceasefire'. He insisted that Ukraine does not attack any foreign territory and kill civilians. First things first, tweeted Mykhailo Podolyak. Ukraine does not attack foreign territory and does not kill civilians. As Russia is doing. Russia should leave the territories of Ukraine, only then it will be considered a temporary ceasefire.
The head of the Russian Orthodox Church requested a ceasefire
The head of the Russian Orthodox Church called on Thursday for a 36-hour Christmas truce in Ukraine this weekend, but his appeal has done little to stop the war that began with Russia's invasion nearly 11 months ago. There was no prospect of success. Patriarch Kirill suggested a ceasefire from Friday afternoon to Saturday midnight local time.
