Russia-Ukraine War: Zelensky Slams Putin, Says Kremlin Failed To Observe Ceasefire

Added: 2026-05-11

[00:00:05]There were no massive attacks today, no missile or air strikes, but there was no peace in the front line areas and communities near the front.

[00:00:14]The Russians continue their assault activity in directions that are key for them.

[00:00:19]There is shelling, there were drone strikes of various types at the front.

[00:00:23]Over yesterday and today, there were more than 150 assault actions, more than 100 instances of shelling, and nearly 10,000 kamikaze drone strikes.

[00:00:33]In other words, the Russian army is not observing the silence at the front and is not even particularly trying to.

[00:00:40]All our Ukrainian units are acting in a mirror-like manner, defending our positions exactly as required.

[00:00:47]Regarding our long-range sanctions, yesterday and today, Ukraine refrained from long-range actions in response to the absence of massive Russian attacks.

[00:00:57]In the future, we will continue to react in the same mirror-like fashion. And if the Russians decide to return to full-scale war, our sanctions for this will be immediate and tangible.

[00:01:08]Our contacts with the American side regarding guarantees are currently ongoing.

[00:01:13]Guarantees for the implementation of the agreements that were recently reached and mentioned by the US President.

[00:01:20]A thousand for thousand prisoner exchange is being prepared and must be carried out.

[00:01:25]The Americans took these guarantees upon themselves.

[00:01:29]The Ukrainian coordination headquarters has handed over the lists of 1,000 to the Russian side.

[00:01:35]There was American mediation in this exchange agreement. Accordingly, we expect the American side to be active in ensuring the fulfillment of these agreements.

[00:01:44]Now, Putin himself says that he is finally ready for real meetings.

[00:01:48]We pushed him a little and we have been prepared for a meeting for a long time, so a format must be found. This war must be ended and security must be reliably guaranteed.
