Does Kyiv think that the termination of the fire will work?

The BBC talk to people in Kiev to find out if the people in the Ukrainian capital believe that a deal with the end of fire can be a step towards ending the war with Russia.

Ukraine agreed to a plan for a 30-day termination of fire earlier this week after talks with the United States.

Since then, Russian President Vladimir Putin said he agreed with the idea of ​​ending the fire in Ukraine, but added that the “questions” of the nature of the truce remain.

He also set a number of difficult conditions for peace. Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelenski described Putin’s answer to the plan as “manipulative” and called for more sanctions against Russia.

Russia began a full -scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 after the annexation of the Crimea in 2014 and has continued war since then.
