We saw President Putin's announcement of a temporary ceasefire in connection with Easter. We remain committed to achieving a full and comprehensive ceasefire. As we evaluate its seriousness in this case, we would welcome it (the ceasefire - ed.) to continue after Sunday
- the publication quotes the State Department spokesman.

The authors add that US President Donald Trump has repeatedly warned of the risk of escalation of the three-year war. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Friday that Washington would abandon attempts to reach a peace agreement if there were no clear signs of progress soon.
