Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reiterated his offer for a ceasefire and requested U.S. assistance in conveying this to Russia. Historical ceasefires have been marred by mutual accusations of violations, with both sides allegedly using these periods for troop repositioning and rearmament. Meanwhile, EU foreign ministers commemorated the fourth anniversary of the liberation of Bucha, calling for accountability for Russian war crimes following the discovery of over 400 civilian bodies in the town after its recapture by Ukrainian forces.
