Russia and Ukraine confirmed on Friday a three-day ceasefire and large-scale prisoner exchange from May 9 to 11, mediated by the United States. The announcement coincides with Moscow’s celebration of its World War II victory. US President Donald Trump first declared the ceasefire, expressing hope that it could pave the way for a long-term peace agreement. According to Trump, both sides agreed to exchange 1,000 prisoners during the truce.
Earlier, Russia had unilaterally announced a two-day ceasefire for its Victory Day, while Ukraine had also proposed a truce that Moscow initially ignored. Trump stated that he personally requested the ceasefire and thanked Presidents Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky for agreeing. He described it as a potential beginning of the end to a prolonged and deadly conflict.
Ukrainian President Zelensky emphasized that a ceasefire must be established and instructed his forces not to attack Moscow’s Red Square on May 9, when Russia’s annual Victory Parade—this year held without military hardware—was scheduled to take place.
