Ukraine Agrees to 30-Day Ceasefire, Awaits Russian Response

Ukraine has agreed to an immediate 30-day ceasefire with Russia following talks with US officials in Saudi Arabia, with the truce subject to Russian acceptance and implementation.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that Washington would present the proposal to Moscow, while Ukraine’s Chief of Staff Andriy Yermak said the move would test Russia’s commitment to peace.

As part of the deal, the US will resume intelligence sharing and security assistance to Kyiv, and both countries have agreed to finalize a critical minerals agreement.
