Former Russian President, Medvedev threatens Kiev in case of attack on a party day

Kremlin stated that the ceasefire proposed by Russian President Vladimir Putin, on May 8-10, would test Kiev’s willingness to make peace. Zelensky replied, saying he doesn’t know what Russia will do right now. “She can take various measures, such as fires, explosions, and then accuse us,” said the Ukrainian.

According to the RFI agency, observers in Ukraine see the announcement of the Putin truce as a way to avoid Ukrainian attacks that could interrupt the ceremonies. For Zelensky, the deadline is very short for serious negotiations. “No one will help Putin play this kind of game,” he added, but without clearly rejecting the three -day truce proposed by Moscow.

This year, leaders of about 20 countries are expected to be next to Putin on May 9 to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Nazi Germany. In addition to Lula, will be present the Chinese president, XI Jinping, and traditional allies of Moscow, such as Kazakhstan, Belarus, Cuba and Venezuela. Russia has prepared a parade in Red Square in Moscow.

President Lula is expected to arrive in Moscow on May 8, where he will participate in the victory day celebrations, celebrated on May 9. The date marks the 80th anniversary of the triumph over Nazi Germany in World War II. The official entourage is in Russia until May 10th.

The first lady Rosângela da Silva, Janja, boarded Moscow on Friday (2) departing six days in advance regarding President Lula and her official entourage. One of Janja’s commitments was to visit Kremlin in Moscow this Saturday.
