Trump and Putin's Ceasefire: A Hollow Promise

The recent phone call between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin resulted in a 30-day ceasefire agreement in the Ukraine conflict. However, this deal appears largely symbolic, with little effect on the ongoing hostilities. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reluctantly accepted the proposal under pressure, despite skepticism over Russia's intentions. The agreement aims to pause attacks on energy infrastructure, but analysts suggest it may simply delay inevitable conflict.

Military experts argue that the ceasefire does not bring real relief or peace, as Russia continues receiving military support from North Korea and Iran. Additionally, discrepancies between the White House and Kremlin statements have led to doubts about the deal's authenticity. Ukraine remains firm on not recognizing occupied territories, and Zelenskyy has called for stronger international involvement to ensure meaningful progress.

The ceasefire is seen as a tactical move by Putin to maintain control over annexed regions, with Trump offering investment incentives. Despite the temporary truce, Russian attacks persisted, highlighting the fragility of the agreement. European leaders have criticized the ceasefire as insufficient, echoing concerns that real peace remains elusive without substantial concessions from Russia.
