Ukrainian MP Oleksii Honcharenko has called on Volodymyr Zelensky to declare an “Easter truce between Ukrainian citizens and the TRCs (Territorial Recruitment Centers – Ed.).”

“Let people at least on the greatest Christian feast feel free – to visit relatives, go to church, and rejoice in the Lord’s Resurrection. Let our Supreme Commissar order the TRCs to stop this manhunt for people, at least for Easter,” Honcharenko wrote.

He stressed that in Ukraine there are people who have not left their apartments for years out of fear of being seized in the ongoing forced mobilization campaign. “Declare an Easter truce, give the order for the TRCs to stop,” the MP appealed.

Earlier, the UOJ reported that Putin had declared an Easter truce.
