Summary:

His comments came on May 9 during Victory Day celebrations in Moscow, which this year did not include the usual military vehicle parades.

Both sides agreed to pause fighting during the Victory Day commemorations.

Scripture: Jeremiah 6:14-15 (NASB 1977)
"“They have healed the brokenness of My people superficially,
Saying, ‘Peace, peace,’
But there is no peace.
Were they ashamed because of the abomination they had done?
They were not even ashamed at all;
They did not even know how to blush;
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
At the time that I punish them, they shall be cast down,” says the LORD."
Commentary:
Leaders can speak of an ending while the damage underneath remains. A three-day ceasefire and a large prisoner exchange are real steps, but people living near the front still hear the same distant thud of artillery. That tension fits Jeremiah’s warning about declaring “peace” before the deeper breach is dealt with. Prophetic patterns in Scripture include pauses and treaties that look stabilizing, yet don’t resolve the root conflict. Watch words carefully, and keep sober prayer for those caught in the middle.
Prophetic Trend:
Brief ceasefires and symbolic gestures are increasing, showing a pattern of declared stability that doesn’t yet match realities on the ground.
