03.03.2025 โ‡ข Day The Small Film Won While Peace Died
โŒจThe night belonged to "Anora," a low-budget film that won five Oscars including Best Picture, while Kieran Culkin and Zoe Saldana took supporting roles. The ceremony's coverage competed with Ukraine developments throughout the early hours.

By morning, Zelenskyy rejected French proposals for a one-month truce, maintaining that Russia's continued air strikes proved its unwillingness to negotiate. Starmer addressed Parliament, attempting to balance support for Ukraine while affirming Trump's commitment to peace.

The evening marked a sharp deterioration in US-Ukraine relations as Trump launched multiple attacks on Zelenskyy for stating peace remained "very far away." The White House began drawing up plans to ease Russian sanctions, while European leaders tried maintaining unity through what Sky News termed "aerial terror." Britain and France's suggestion of a partial truce highlighted growing differences in Western approaches to ending the conflict.
