DOMINANT ANGLE
Russia accepts the truce, denies violations, and doubts Trump can enforce it on Kyiv
Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media
ANALYSIS
Russia: the Kremlin officially accepted the 72-hour truce proposed by Trump, coinciding with Victory Day. RT and TASS invert the accusation of violations: according to Russian state media, it is Ukraine that has continued to attack. A presidential aide stated that Trump's hopes for extending the truce beyond 72 hours are 'unfounded.' The Moscow Times, an independent publication, reports that Putin declared the war is 'nearing its end' and said he was willing to meet Zelensky outside Russia for the first time — a notable opening, though the formulation remains conditional. Russia presents the truce as a de facto acknowledgement of its negotiating position.
