Ukraine pledges no strike on Moscow as prisoner swap links to scaled-back Victory Day
TL;DR Summary
Ukraine’s president said Kyiv will not attack Moscow to permit a temporary ceasefire and a swap of about 1,000 Ukrainian prisoners, framing Red Square as less important than freeing detainees. The deal comes as Russia trims Victory Day parades for security reasons, amid drone incidents and mounting concern over the war, while peace talks remain stalled and Putin leverages the parade for show of strength.
