Putin Offers Amnesty to Ukrainian Troops in Kursk in Exchange for Surrender
ai generated text
The current situation in Ukraine involves a conflict between Ukrainian troops and Russian forces, with the latter being urged by US President Donald Trump to spare the lives of Ukrainian soldiers. Vladimir Putin, the Kremlin leader, has stated that if Ukrainian troops surrender, they will be guaranteed life and dignified treatment.
There are certainly some grounds for cautious optimism.
If they lay down their arms and surrender, they will be guaranteed life and dignified treatment.
We understand President Trump's call to be guided by humanitarian considerations with regard to these servicemen.
I had a telephone conversation with President Trump [last month], there was contact between our foreign minister and his American colleague, and my presidential adviser [Yury] Ukshakov met face-to-face with his counterpart.
So overall the situation is beginning to move. We'll see what comes of it.
The enemy has once again launched a sneaky rocket strike into the centre of a residential area.
Russia is the only party that wants the war to continue and diplomacy to break down.
That is why he is now doing everything he can to sabotage diplomacy by setting extremely difficult and unacceptable conditions right from the start even before a ceasefire.
Our teams continue to work on clear security guarantees, and they will be ready soon.
The exchange of prisoners and an unconditional 30-day full interim ceasefire are the first quick steps that could significantly bring us closer to a just and lasting peace.
Meanwhile, the world sees how Russia is deliberately setting conditions that only complicate and drag out the process.
Right now, we have a good chance to end this war quickly and secure peace. We have solid security understandings with our European partners.
But we certainly feel like we're at least some steps closer to ending this war and bringing peace. But it's still a long journey.
I haven't talked to the president [Trump] about that particular issue, but I would be shocked if he was supportive of nuclear weapons extending further east into Europe.
We had very good and productive discussions with President Vladimir Putin of Russia yesterday.
There is a very good chance that this horrible, bloody war can finally come to an end.
BUT, AT THIS VERY MOMENT, THOUSANDS OF UKRAINIAN TROOPS ARE COMPLETELY SURROUNDED BY THE RUSSIAN MILITARY, AND IN A VERY BAD AND VULNERABLE POSITION. I have strongly requested to President Putin that their lives be spared. This would be a horrible massacre, one not seen since World War II.
Putin absolutely has no interest in a ceasefire. He has no interest in ending this war. His only interest right now is to try to find an elegant way not to enrage Donald Trump, who's made the ceasefire a sort of political milestone.
