Polish foreign minister Radosław Sikorski has just confirmed that US aid deliveries to Ukraine coming through the Polish logistics hub in Rzeszów-Jasionka have returned to previous levels seen before the brief pause.

Sikorski spoke at a press conference alongside his Ukrainian counterpart Andryi Sybiha, who stopped in Poland on his way back from Jeddah.

Sybiha, speaking in Polish, said that Ukraine was “the country that wants to end this war, and [achieve] a just, lasting peace the most.”

Everyone is confused because at no point has the US confirmed Russia has agreed to the same ceasefire.

A ceasefire which only party has agreed to is not a ceasefire. Calling it one over and over and maybe aid dependent on it makes no sense.

russia already has been negotiating with US though. If both parties would rather have US mediate the agreement, how does that make either of them not included?

I'm just saying that usually if you expect an agreement the bare minimum is including the other party in negotiations

It‘s not like Putin respected similar agreements the other 20 times they‘ve agreed to them.

with expert negotiation tactics like this at play I can't imagine why

I think the agreement was that US aid renews immediately, but the ceasefire only starts when (if) russia agrees to it. And if it doesn't, I guess that would at least very obviously show which side actually wants peace here. *inhales another batch of copium*

I doubt anything is going to stop Putin in the long run, other than a definitive loss. I'm interested to see how Trump responds when he's forced to confront the fact that geopolitics is not like demanding a refund at McDonalds because your nuggies are cold.

Ukraine and US agree to 30 day ceasefire, doesn't look like the Russians were included in that negotiation.

I'm not going to hold my breath
