[Russia says a ceasefire can be held on election day if Ukraine holds an election] October 12, RIA Novosti quoted Russian Presidential Press Secretary Peskov as saying, "If Ukraine really wants to hold an election, (Russian President) Putin is willing to order not to carry out attacks on Ukraine on election day." Peskov today rejected Ukrainian President Zelensky’s idea of ​​a “60-day complete ceasefire to organize presidential elections (in Ukraine)” and stressed that Russia “hopes to reach a comprehensive peace agreement, not a temporary ceasefire.” On the ABC "This Week" program on October 11, Zelensky responded to U.S. President Trump's remarks that "it's time for Ukraine to change its president" and said: "Please tell Putin, give us two months and 60 days of comprehensive ceasefire, and we will organize elections. Ukrainian law prohibits elections during wartime. The Russian side believes that Ukraine's failure to hold elections makes Zelensky an "illegitimate leader." (CCTV International News)
