Does Kyiv think the ceasefire will work?

The BBC talks to people in Kiev to find out if people in the capital of Ukraine believe that the ceasefire transaction can be a step towards the ceasefire with Russia.

Ukraine agreed to the plan of 30-day ceasefire earlier this week after talks with the United States.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has since said he agreed with the idea of ​​ceasefire in Ukraine, but added that “questions” remain about the character of the truce.

He also posted a number of hard peace conditions. President of Ukrainian Volodimir Zelensky called Putin’s reaction to the “manipulative” plan and called for more sanctions on Russia.

In February 2022, Russia launched a full -scale invasion of Ukraine after the annexation of Crimea in 2014, and since then the war has continued.
