Russia rejects the complete ceasefire, but explains it

Russian President Vladimir Putin rejected President Trump's proposal on Tuesday with a complete, unconditional ceasefire against Ukraine, but agreed to stop the attacks on “energy and infrastructure” recently and successfully.

Elsewhere in the two-hour phone call, the Russian president demanded the entire military and intelligence support to Ukraine after an advertisement from the Kremlin.

In a summary of the call of the White House, the brave question was not mentioned, and in the early Tuesday afternoon American help continued, which indicates that Trump ignored or rejected Putin's gambit.

Trump was apparently able to secure an element of his ceasefire proposal when the Kremlin announced that Russia and Ukraine 175 of the prisoners of war would publish, with Moscow also freed “23 seriously injured Ukrainian soldiers” to maintain treatment in her home country.

Although Putin did not withdraw, Trump described the call “very good and productive” in a post for the social truth.

“We have agreed to an immediate ceasefire for all energy and infrastructure, with the understanding that we will quickly work to have a complete ceasefire, and ultimately an end to this very terrible war between Russia and Ukraine,” he said.

“This war would never have started if I were president!” Added. “Many elements of a peace treaty were discussed, including the fact that thousands are killed by soldiers, and both President Putin and President Zelenskyy would like to see.”

However, the Kremlin specified that only the “energy infrastructure” would be subject to the ceasefire if Kyiv should agree – which would continue the attacks of Russia to other civilian infrastructure.

Moscow is looking for the ceasefire “Energy Infrastructure” after Ukraine has rejected several Russian oil facilities in the past few weeks.

On March 11, Kyiv started a drone attack on Moscow's oil refinery, which provides the Russian capital about half of its diesel and petrol needs.

Although the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky agreed to Trump's preliminary proposal last week, it is unclear whether Kyiv would agree to the modified armistice discussed by the American and Russian leaders.

“Russia has an interest in stopping the Ukrainian strikes for its energy infrastructure,” said John Hardie, expert of Russia experts from democracies, the mail. “Moscow and Kyiv tacitly held preliminary discussions about such an armistice last year, even though they ultimately collapsed.”

Russia has also targeted the Ukrainian energy infrastructure in a targeted manner and in terms of time at the beginning of every winter, since the temperatures are falling and civilians need energy and gas for heat.

Trump welcomed Russia to no longer attack the energy infrastructure of Ukraine.

“The leaders agreed that the movement for peace with an armistice of energy and infrastructure as well as technical negotiations on the implementation of a maritime ceasefire in the Black Sea, full ceasefire and permanent peace begins,” said the White House in a explanation. “These negotiations start immediately in the Middle East.”

Hardie said Putin had probably offered the restricted ceasefire to further delay the talks and believe Trump that Moscow was willing to give something.

“Putin had to appear constructive.

“Putin wants to concentrate Trump on luring Russia into the negotiating table instead of force Russia through sanctions or other means.”

Trump and his national security team tried to make Putin agree to the same 30-day deal that Kyiv approves last week after the talks in Saudi Arabia.

The US proposal should reveal which party of the war was ready to speak peace, administrative officers said. It was no other conditions than a commitment to diplomatic conversations, a break for all hostilities, the exchange of prisoners of war and the return of the Ukrainian children who kidnapped Russians.

Since the beginning of the Trump government, the President has been committed to “stopping the murder” on Russia and Ukraine and then keeping negotiations under an armistice, according to the special representative of Ukraine, General Keith Kellogg.

Before the planned call, Putin didn't seem in a hurry to pick up the listener to chat with Trump via the armistice.

At 5:30 p.m. Moscow, Putin was still on stage at the Congress of the Russian Union of industrialists and entrepreneurs and, according to Russia's state TASS news agency, spoke with oligarchs about the “decline of western dominance”.

In a video clip of the summit, an interviewer Putin reminded that his spokesman Dmitry Peskov had stated that the call to the Russia president with Trump should “up to the duration” from 6 p.m.

Putin waved the comment and indicates that he stays on the stage for a long time and joked: “I don't listen [to Peskov]. “”

The Kremlin Tyrant could have signed the ceasefire on Friday when Steve Witkoff, special representative in the Moscow, went to Moscow to present Putin with the agreement that the Ukraine had colored the Ukraine two days earlier.

Putin sent Witkoff home with little more than a demand for Washington that Trump calls him directly to discuss the potential business.

The Russian president also let the Americans wait for him that day and paid it to Witkoff for about eight hours – a time when a dinner with the Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko contained, reports Kremlin.

But Trump insisted that Witkoff was waiting and claimed that the envoy met with Russian officials on a low level than cooling his heels.
