Russia is striving for a sustainable peace in the Ukrainian conflict, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said today.

"We want sustainable peace, and sustainable peace can be established when we secure our interests and achieve the goals we set at the very beginning. This could be done today if Zelensky makes the necessary decisions," Peskov told reporters, according to the Russian news agency TASS.

He said that "as soon as these decisions are made, the situation will return to a peaceful course."

Peskov added that Russia will continue its attacks on Ukraine "until Zelensky makes these decisions."

"The process (in Ukraine) is currently on hold. We understand that, because our American colleagues are very busy," he concluded.

Russian President Vladimir Putin declared a 32-hour ceasefire during Orthodox Easter on Thursday, April 9th.

The Russian Defense Ministry announced today that Ukraine is violating the Easter ceasefire, while the Russian military is respecting it.

Moscow and Kyiv accuse each other of violating the agreed ceasefire.
