In return, United States has immediately restored the supply of arms and ammunition and would resume intelligence sharing. Russia, for its part, continues to regain ground in the region of KurskThe Russian advance diminishes the interest of Putin in reaching a ceasefire. In fact, as the president himself stated, any ceasefire at this point would simply allow kyiv's forces to regroup just as Moscow is about to expel them from Kursk.
Putin also reiterated that Russia wants concessions on long-term issues before accepting any ceasefire. For Moscow, there are still several issues that require further discussion, such as the suspension of all military aid to Ukraine during the ceasefire, not just weapons from Ukraine. U.S., ensure that kyiv does not carry out new recruitment, agree to the supervision of the 2.000 kilometers of front and guarantee that the truce leads to a long-term agreement. Moscow's reluctance to reach a ceasefire has forced the United States and its partners in the G7 to threaten Russia with new sanctions and the use of frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine. Whether due to Western threats or because Putin doesn't want to derail the rapprochement between the United States and Russia, the Russian president has agreed to hold a telephone conversation with his American counterpart next Tuesday, March 18, where they are expected to discuss all these issues.
