Britain has urged Russia to commit to a full ceasefire in Ukraine, "not just a one-day pause", its foreign ministry said in a statement on Saturday.
Russian President Vladimir Putin earlier in the day declared a unilateral 30-hour Easter ceasefire in Ukraine, after Washington said it might abandon peace talks within days unless Moscow and Kyiv show they are ready to stop the war.
