VIVA – The Russian President, Vladimir Putin pada Kamis, January 5, 2023, has ordered its army to undertake a 36-hour ceasefire across the “entire” frontline of their invasion of Ukraine, to allow people to attend services on Orthodox Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Ukrainian presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak dismissed Kirill’s call as “a cynical trap and an element of propaganda.” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had proposed a Russian troop withdrawal earlier, before December 25, but Russia rejected it.

Also, it is said that the Russian move is stretching the time to regroup invasion forces, and prepare for additional attacks.

At various points during the war that began on February 24, Russian authorities have ordered limited local ceasefires to allow for the evacuation of civilians or other humanitarian purposes. Thursday's order is the first time Putin has ordered his troops to observe a Ukraine-wide ceasefire.

“Based on the fact that a large number of citizens professing Orthodoxy live in the areas of hostilities, we call on the Ukrainian side to declare a ceasefire and allow them to attend services on Christmas Eve, as well as on Christmas Day,” President Vladimir Putin said, in a statement released by the Kremlin.

Moreover, in his night speech video, Volodymyr Zelensky stated that his forces will reject Putin’s calls to stop the fighting, instead questioning the motives of the Russian Leadership.

“Now they want to use Christmas as a cover temporarily stop the advance of our people in Donbas and bring equipment, ammunition, and mobilize people closer to our positions,” President Zelensky remarked.
