Trump announces three-day ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia

Moscow and Kyiv have both accused each other of violating ceasefires that each has separately declared

International News via Reuters:

U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday announced on social media that there would be a three-day ceasefire in the war between Russia and Ukraine from May 9 until May 11.

Moscow and Kyiv have both accused each other of violating ceasefires that each has separately declared.

 Trump said in a Truth Social post that the pause will include a suspension of all kinetic activity, and also a prison swap of 1,000 prisoners from each country.

“Hopefully, it is the beginning of the end of a very long, deadly, and hard fought War,” he said, adding that there was constant progress in talks to end the conflict.
