President Vladimir Putin on Monday ordered a three-day truce with Ukraine to coincide with Moscow's World War II commemorations next month that his Ukrainian rival slammed as an “attempt at manipulation”.

Before Mr Putin’s announcement, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio held new talks with Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov, having declared that this will be a crucial week in a US decision on whether to halt its peace efforts.

The Kremlin said Mr Putin had ordered a “ceasefire” for the 80th anniversary of Victory Day from May 8 to May 10. “All combat operations will be suspended during this period,” it said in a statement.
