A Russian official dismissed the US ceasefire proposal for Ukraine, stating it fails to consider Russia's concerns. Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov emphasized that although they take US suggestions seriously, acceptance is impossible without changes. This response follows comments from US President Trump expressing frustration with President Putin. In the backdrop, Germany is increasing its aid to Ukraine, with the German Foreign Minister visiting Kyiv, highlighting continued international support for Ukraine amid the conflict.
"We take the models and solutions proposed by the Americans very seriously, but we can't accept it all in its current form," Ryabkov was quoted.
The Russian statement came after Trump said over the weekend that he was "pissed off" by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Moscow's view is that the US proposals do not address Russian concerns about the cause of the war.
Outgoing German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock is in Kyiv as Berlin commits to 130 million more in aid.
