Putin agrees in principle to 30 day Ukraine ceasefire

RUSSIAN President Vladimir Putin has said that he agrees in principle with a US proposal for a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine, but he emphasised that the terms have yet to be worked out and any truce should pave the way to a lasting peace.
“The idea itself is correct and we certainly support it,” he told a news conference in Moscow on Thursday.
“But there are issues that we need to discuss and I think that we need to talk about it with our American colleagues and partners and, perhaps, have a call with President Trump and discuss it with him.”
