- Putin’s effort to appear as the chief peacekeeper failed within the information domain.
- The announced Easter truce was not respected by Russia, resulting in 45 combat incidents on April 20.
- Ukraine expressed readiness to reciprocate the ceasefire and consider its extension if full silence prevails.
- Analysts indicate Russia continues fighting on key fronts, showing no genuine intention to end the war.
The Russian information operation, aimed at accusing Ukraine of disrupting the 'truce', has failed, including in the Western information space. Russia itself did not adhere to the ceasefire it had declared and in some places used the situation to prepare for possible new assault actions while continuing fighting on key fronts.— Andrii Kovalenko, Head of the Center for Countering Disinformation at Ukraine's National Security and Defence Council, on Telegram
