Putin Stuns World with Surprise Ukraine Ceasefire in May — Direct Talks Offered but Kyiv Holds Firm
In a stunning and unexpected move, Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced a unilateral three-day ceasefire in the ongoing war in Ukraine, set to take place from May 8 to May 10, 2025.
This marks the first major shift in Russia’s approach to peace talks, as the Kremlin says it is now open to “unconditional” one-on-one negotiations.
However, Ukraine remains firm, having passed a law prohibiting direct talks with Putin following Russia’s 2022 annexation of four Ukrainian regions.

In this latest update, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov slams Ukraine for showing no sign of readiness to engage in direct negotiations with Russia. Despite Moscow’s openness to peace talks, Ukrainian President Zelensky maintains a strict ban on any negotiations with Vladimir Putin—a move he implemented in October 2022 to stop separatism and control backchannel talks. Peskov insists that Ukraine must act, especially in light of its legal ban on direct talks.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has publicly thanked North Korean troops for their role in repelling a Ukrainian incursion into Russia’s Kursk Region. For the first time, Moscow acknowledged North Korean military participation in the Ukraine conflict. Pyongyang called the operation a defense against "neo-Nazi forces," as part of a bilateral treaty with Russia. Putin promised that fallen North Korean fighters will be honored equally with Russian soldiers. The development comes amid rising tensions and shifting alliances in the ongoing Ukraine war.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has warned that imposing new sanctions on Russia could extend the Ukraine conflict by two more years. Speaking on NBC’s Meet the Press, Rubio emphasized the critical diplomatic window the US is currently navigating. While President Trump threatened new sanctions, Rubio stressed that Washington is uniquely positioned to broker talks between Kiev and Moscow. The next week is expected to be pivotal for determining whether negotiations can move forward, as both sides edge closer to—but not quite reaching—a potential breakthrough.

A confidential U.S. peace proposal to end the Ukraine war was secretly presented by envoy Steve Witkoff to European officials in Paris on April 17, 2025. The leaked plan includes a permanent ceasefire, Ukraine’s NATO exit, U.S. recognition of Crimea as Russian territory, and economic benefits for both Kyiv and Moscow. Ukraine would regain limited territory and receive financial aid, while Russia would benefit from lifted sanctions. The plan, labeled Washington’s “final offer,” signals a dramatic shift in U.S. diplomacy. Both Russia and Ukraine have yet to issue formal responses.

Putin has launched a scathing attack on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, accusing him of violating the proposed Easter ceasefire nearly 4,900 times within 48 hours. According to Russian officials, over 90 drone strikes and the use of U.S.-supplied HIMARS rockets were reported in just 30 hours. Moscow claims Zelensky deliberately shattered the truce, treating Easter as a “signal for war.” The Kremlin also accused Kyiv of following Western orders to sabotage peace talks and prolong the conflict. The tension mounts as Trump also expresses growing frustration with Zelensky's peace approach.

This came after their first in-person meeting at the Vatican following a tense argument in the Oval Office in February. Trump also discussed China tariffs and the controversial death of Jeffrey Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre, making it a loaded press interaction that further fuels international tensions.
