Russia agrees with Ukraine peace proposal, but says it should lead to 'enduring peace' | BBC News

Russian President Vladimir Putin said fighting must end in Ukraine, but adds a ceasefire should lead to "enduring peace and remove underlying causes of this crisis”.

He said the idea of a ceasefire is "good and we absolutely support it but there are issues that we need to discuss”.

The Russian president spoke at a joint press conference with Belarus’ leader Alexander Lukashenko, as US President Donald Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff arrived in Moscow ahead of US-Russia talks on the 30-day ceasefire proposal.
