Russia, Ukraine, and the U.S.: Is the Black Sea Ceasefire Real?

The White House has declared a consensus achieved during discussions with Russia and Ukraine for a maritime ceasefire. This accord aims to guarantee safe passage, abolish forceful actions, and avert the military use of commercial ships in the Black Sea.



Both countries have also pledged to establish strategies to uphold a previous deal aimed at ceasing attacks on energy facilities.

The announcements issued from both Ukraine and Russia stress the desire to strive for a stable and enduring peace. In the particular update concerning Ukraine, the White House reiterated its commitment to aiding in the exchange of prisoners of war, the liberation of civilian captives, and the return of forcibly relocated Ukrainian minors.

On the other hand, the Russia-centric document emphasized US support in reinstating Russia’s access to international markets for agricultural and fertilizer exports, alongside initiatives to reduce maritime insurance expenses and enhance access to ports and financial systems for these transactions.



Both statements wrapped up with a reassertion of President Donald J. Trump’s plea for an end to hostilities from both factions of the Russia-Ukraine dispute, identifying this as a vital step toward realizing a lasting peace agreement.

To promote a peaceful resolution, the United States will persist in mediating discussions in line with the agreements made in Riyadh.
