Ukraine's foreign minister has approached Europe to broker what officials describe as an 'airport ceasefire' with Russia, according to POLITICO.
The proposal suggests Moscow might be willing to negotiate a limited agreement focused on protecting major airports from military strikes. The move reflects Kyiv's concern that Ukrainian forces could target Russian aviation infrastructure, risking further escalation of the conflict.
No details on Russian response have been disclosed. The initiative marks a shift toward exploring negotiated arrangements on specific conflict zones rather than broader ceasefire demands.
