Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky He stated on Wednesday that his country was ready to consider a ceasefire with Russia, while simultaneously welcoming the recent de-escalation between the United States and Iran. This statement comes amid an international context marked by an attempt to revive diplomatic efforts on several fronts.
In a message posted on social media, Volodymyr Zelensky reiterated that Ukraine had "always called for a ceasefire" in the war initiated by Russia. He specified that Kyiv was prepared to "respond in kind" if Moscow ended its strikes, thus paving the way for a possible de-escalation of the conflict in Europe.
The Ukrainian head of state also expressed his support for the truce reached between Washington and Tehran, believing it could facilitate a return to negotiations. According to him, this type of agreement demonstrates that a diplomatic path remains possible, even in contexts of extreme tension.
This stance comes at a pivotal moment, as several international actors call for intensified efforts to end ongoing conflicts. The war in Ukraine, which has been raging for over two years, continues to weigh heavily on European security and the global geopolitical balance.
By conditioning any potential ceasefire on a halt to Russian airstrikes, Kyiv is maintaining a firm stance, insisting on Moscow's responsibility for the continuation of hostilities. No official reaction from Russian authorities to this proposal was immediately reported.
In this context, Volodymyr Zelensky's statement could mark a new attempt to revive the dialogue, even if the prospects for an agreement remain uncertain in the short term.
