Russia is offering rare support for a new ceasefire
in Ukraine’s eastern region of Donbas by not blaming
Ukraine for recent ceasefire violations, despite
derailing several similar ceasefires in the past. The
ceasefire began on July 27 and represents
an important new development in the now six-year-old
conflict between the Ukrainian government and Russian-backed proxy
forces in eastern Ukraine. In this episode of
Overwatch, Mason Clark and George Barros explain the
significance of the ceasefire and what Ukraine and Russia hope
to achieve from it.
