Ukraine's Zelenskiy says he stands by ceasefire proposal to Russia

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Monday that he stood by a proposal made to Russia for a ceasefire contingent on Moscow halting all attacks ‌on energy infrastructure. Zelenskiy said in his nightly video address that the proposal had been conveyed to Moscow through the U.S.

He also said work was continuing with U.S. negotiators on security guarantees, which he called the key to lasting peace.  Zelenskiy offered last week to observe a ceasefire under similar conditions for Easter.
