Russia’s Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, has expressed reservations regarding a recent call from U.S. President Donald Trump for a temporary halt to hostilities on the front line of the conflict in Ukraine. Lavrov stated that Russia does not support such a measure and maintains that the current situation necessitates ongoing military action. He emphasized Russia’s commitment to protecting its own strategic interests and emphasizes the importance of maintaining the existing defense lines. Russia has consistently maintained its position that any agreement to halt the conflict must be reached through negotiations, not through unilateral declarations.
