Details: Oslo said it backs Kyiv's call for an immediate ceasefire with Russia starting from the night of 5-6 May, in response to Moscow's unilateral move.

"There is nothing to wait for. Russia can at any point end this war by ceasing to attack Ukraine and its civilians," the foreign ministry said.

Background:

  • Germany's foreign minister has also urged Russia to accept Ukraine's ceasefire proposal.
  • Meanwhile, the Ukrainian Air Force reported on the morning of 6 May that Russia has resumed airstrikes from the very first hours of the day.
  • On 9 May, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico is expected to visit Moscow and meet Russian leader Vladimir Putin, although he has said he will not attend the Victory Day military parade.
