Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy:

"In recent days, there have been many appeals and signals regarding the setup for tomorrow in Moscow in connection with our Ukrainian long-range sanctions. The principle of symmetry in our actions is well known and has been clearly communicated to the Russian side. An additional argument for Ukraine in determining our position has always been the resolution of one of the key humanitarian issues of this war – namely, the release of prisoners of war. Red Square is less important to us than the lives of Ukrainian prisoners who can be brought home.

That is why today, within the framework of the negotiating process mediated by the American side, we received Russia’s agreement to conduct a prisoner exchange in the format of 1,000 for 1,000. A ceasefire regime must also be established on May 9, 10, and 11. Ukraine is consistently working to bring its people home from Russian captivity. I have instructed our team to promptly prepare everything necessary for the exchange.

I thank the President of the United States and his team for their productive diplomatic involvement. We expect the United States to ensure that the Russian side fulfills these agreements.
Glory to Ukraine!"

U.S. President Donald Trump:

"I am pleased to announce that there will be a THREE DAY CEASEFIRE (May 9th, 10th, and 11th) in the War between Russia and Ukraine. The Celebration in Russia is for Victory Day but, likewise, in Ukraine, because they were also a big part and factor of World War II. This Ceasefire will include a suspension of all kinetic activity, and also a prison swap of 1,000 prisoners from each Country. This request was made directly by me, and I very much appreciate its agreement by President Vladimir Putin and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Hopefully, it is the beginning of the end of a very long, deadly, and hard fought War. Talks are continuing on ending this Major Conflict, the biggest since World War II, and we are getting closer and closer every day. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP." - Open Source Intel

RT @ddale8: Trump’s latest deceptive chart: US oil prices are *up* since the day he returned to office in Jan. 2025, when they were under $80. So what is the “$120” the chart uses to wrongly declare prices way down “since Sleepy Joe”? It’s the approximate *peak* Biden-era price, from *2022.*

Trump has repeatedly used this tactic, comparing current gas prices and inflation rates to 2022 peaks rather than the levels Biden left him.

Kremlin spokesman Peskov comments on Zelensky's permission to hold the Victory Day parade:

"Of course, we don't need their permission, but it's probably a pity for the one who is trying to make fun of Victory Day and make such stupid jokes. More likely, it's a bigger issue for him, and we don't need anyone's permission to be proud of our Victory Day."

Lol, this is real.

Ukrainian President Zelensky issued an official decree allowing the Russians to hold a Victory Day parade in Moscow "for the humanitarian purpose."

"For the duration of the parade (from 10 a.m. Kyiv time on May 9, 2026), the territorial square of Red Square will be excluded from the plan for the use of Ukrainian weapons," the decree says.

Oil prices are higher now than they were when Trump returned to the White House. But he still posted a wildly deceptive chart on Friday that wrongly suggests oil prices are lower than they were upon Joe Biden’s departure. https://twitter.com/TheWarMonitor/status/2052851216695116230/photo/1
