Ukraine accused Russia of flouting a Kyiv-proposed ceasefire on Wednesday by carrying out dozens of battlefield assaults, air strikes and drone attacks in what President Volodymyr Zelenskyy described as Moscow's "obvious spurning" of peace.⁣
⁣
Zelenskyy had floated the cessation, starting on May 6, in response to Russian leader Vladimir Putin's own proposed ceasefire from May 8 to 9 to coincide with its World War Two victory commemorations.⁣
⁣
In a statement, Zelenskyy said Russia - which did not confirm its adherence to Ukraine's proposal - had committed 1,820 violations by late morning on Wednesday.⁣
⁣
"Russia's choice is an obvious spurning of a ceasefire and of saving lives," he said.⁣
⁣
Speaking later in his nightly video address, Zelenskiy said Russia "has responded to the proposal only with new strikes and new attacks" and Ukraine would determine "our entirely justified responses".⁣
⁣
He said Ukraine was ready to work for peace but that "if the one person in Moscow who cannot live without war is interested only in a parade and nothing else, that is another matter".⁣
⁣
"Russia has fought to the point where even their main parade now depends on us."⁣
