Russia declared a ceasefire again at 12:30 pm Indian time (10:00 am Moscow time). The Kremlin decided to repatriate Indian students trapped in Sumi safely. Russia's foreign ministry has agreed to allow students from five cities, including Sumi, to return home safely. In addition to Sumi, students from Kiev, Kharkiv, Mariupol and Chernivtsi have also been asked to leave the war-torn Ukraine, the Russian Foreign Ministry said.
Earlier, Russia announced a ceasefire in several Ukrainian cities to build a humanitarian corridor. Despite Ukraine's claims, all of this is Russia's "drama." Earlier, the Russian army attacked several cities, including Kiev, despite declaring a ceasefire. Ordinary people have died.
The ceasefire was declared in Kharkiv, Mariupol and Sumi from 12:30 pm Indian time on Monday. According to the news agency, the decision was taken by Russian President Putin at the request of French President Emmanuel Macron. A couple of days ago, Putin spoke on the phone with McCain. It is believed that this decision was due to him.
However, Ukrainian President Zelensky refused to comply. Russia has twice before declared a ceasefire in the Ukrainian cities of Mariupol and Valnovakha. But each time, Russia broke the deadlock and launched an attack.
Russia-Ukraine war fell in 13 days. The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights said on Sunday that 270 civilians had been killed in Ukraine since the start of the Russian invasion. As many as 1.5 million people have fled Ukraine and become refugees in other countries since February 24. Ukraine accuses Russia of launching a series of missile strikes near a nuclear reactor in Kharkiv. The Grand Launcher they are using to carry out this attack is not well targeted. As a result, the nuclear reactor could explode at any moment. Once there is an explosion, its effects could spread rapidly to European countries.
In this situation, even if Russia calls for a temporary ceasefire, Kiev is not able to accept it in a positive way.
