Ceasefire: Zelensky stated that Ukraine is ready to immediately stop the fire.


Zelensky condemns shelling and calls it a war crime
The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, condemned the Russian shelling, particularly the strike on a bus in Marhanets, which resulted in the deaths of 9 people and injuries to more than 40 individuals, most of whom are women. He emphasized that this strike is an 'absolutely conscious war crime.' The bus that was shelled was civilian transport carrying workers from a mining and processing plant. Zelensky stressed that such strikes on civilian objects have become widespread, especially in Kherson, Kupiansk, Pokrovsk, and communities in Dnipropetrovsk region.
A regular bus. It is clearly a civilian object, a civilian target. More than 40 wounded, most of whom are women, very serious injuries. Unfortunately, 9 people have died. My condolences to the relatives and loved ones.
Zelensky warned about the danger of such forms of terrorism that other terrorists might use, and the continuation of Russian aggression. The President called for an immediate ceasefire and supported the United States' proposal for a complete and unconditional ceasefire. He also stated that Ukraine is ready to consider any formats that would help stop the conflict and achieve peace.
Zelensky hopes that the meeting with partners in Paris and London will lead to a ceasefire and to the onset of true peace. He emphasized that peace can only come when killings and terror cease. The President also expressed readiness for negotiations with Russia but stressed that the prerequisite for them is 'recognition of Crimea as Russian' and a meeting with Donald Trump in the Vatican.
