Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin
Note: Russians and some Ukrainians celebrate Christmas on January 7th
[ColonelCassad] Putin instructed Shoigu to introduce a ceasefire from 12:00 on January 6 to 24:00 on January 7 along the entire line of contact between the parties in Ukraine.
1. The West is shaking the case of weakness and incompetence of the authorities in the Russian Federation.
2. The authorities, already having 8 years of the Minsk truces behind them and their own admissions that no one was going to fulfill them, are again launching a bodyaga with "truces by the date." There were already Christmas truces - they were never respected. As well as "Easter", "bread", "school" and other so-called "truces."
3. The decision is obviously unlikely to be very popular, even despite the efforts of official propaganda on this matter.
4. A reasonable step on the part of the enemy - on January 6 and 7, to bombard Donetsk or any other city with shells and rockets, so that the weakness and incompetence of the authorities would be even better visible to the army and society.
5. Well, then everything is within the framework of paragraph No. 1.
At best, the hostilities both went on and will go on as usual.

Zelensky's gang rejected the "Christmas truce." There will be no ceasefire.
That's good.
