White House: Russia Has Not Accepted Any Ceasefire

The clarification matters less for what it says about Moscow than for what it reveals about the gap between announcement and agreement: a truce described in public as settled is, by the White House's own account, still only potential. That distinction affects anyone pricing geopolitical risk off headlines rather than signed terms. The suspended Witkoff-Kushner trip is the concrete signal — a diplomatic channel paused rather than advanced. Whether the trip resumes, and whether any ceasefire text emerges with Russian acceptance, is the open question.
