Ukraine proposes regime of silence to russia from May 6 as test of readiness to end war - Sybiha

The "regime of silence" initiated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, which is to begin on the night of May 5-6, is an official proposal to end the war and move on to diplomacy.

This was stated by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha on page X, Ukrainian News Agency reports.

The head of the foreign policy department emphasized that the world should not adapt to the russian schedules of "holidays" or "parades". According to him, if the Kremlin is really ready to stop the bloodshed, it can prove it by doing so from midnight.

Ukraine confirms its full readiness for a ceasefire at this time and calls on international partners and global organizations to support this call.

Russia's reaction to this proposal will be a moment of truth for the world community.

As Andrii Sybiha noted, it is the morning of May 6 that will show what Moscow really wants - real peace or the continuation of military parades.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that the aggressor country russia did not discuss with Ukraine the introduction of a short-term ceasefire on May 9. No one contacted Kyiv on this issue and did not send official proposals.

On April 29, russian dictator vladimir putin had a telephone conversation with US President Donald Trump. The Kremlin said that putin proposed declaring a short-term ceasefire on May 9, and Trump allegedly supported this initiative.
