The article discusses the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and the ceasefire announcements made by Russia. The key points are:
* A three-day ceasefire has been announced by Russia, with claims of “humanitarian” concerns.
* The White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, noted that President Trump wants a permanent ceasefire to stop the killing and bloodshed.
* The US president is increasingly frustrated with leaders from both countries.
* Russia’s offer of a temporary ceasefire has not appeared to have worked, as Ukraine had previously agreed to a 30-day comprehensive unconditional ceasefire, while Russia did not.
* Senior Russian officials are using President Putin’s three-day ceasefire offer to try to cast Ukraine in a bad light.
Overall, the article suggests that the US president may be losing patience with the Kremlin despite having directed most of his public criticism towards President Zelensky.
