the population is skeptical of Moscow’s promises

Despite the progress of negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, on Tuesday March 29, the bombardments continued into the night. “The bombardments have not stopped, quite the contrary. All night, again this morning, and we have the impression here that they are even more numerous, more intense than at the beginning of the week”reports, Wednesday 30, Arnaud Comte, special envoy to kyiv (Ukraine).

Don’t take Moscow’s word for it

For Ukrainians, it would be “the proof that we should not take word for what Moscow says in the negotiations”, continues the journalist. The Ukrainian soldiers, reports Arnaud Comte, have another interpretation. “For them, Moscow failed in his plan A, that of conquering the city of kyiv quickly, in a few days”and must now “change plans, bringing in soldiers to bring back others”. The population fears that artillery fire will increase and become “more violent in the next few hours”in order to “freeze the positions on the front line”concludes the journalist.
