Many Orthodox Christians, including those living in Russia and Ukraine, celebrate Christmas on Jan. 6-7.

 

Patriarch Kirill of Moscow, the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, called on Thursday for both sides of the war in Ukraine to observe a Christmas truce, a step dismissed by Kyiv as a cynical trap.

 

"Taking into account the appeal of His Holiness Patriarch Kirill, I instruct the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation to introduce a ceasefire regime along the entire line of contact of the parties in Ukraine from 12.00 on January 6, 2023 to 24.00 on January 7, 2023," Putin said in the order.

 

"Proceeding from the fact that a large number of citizens professing Orthodoxy live in the areas of hostilities, we call on the Ukrainian side to declare a ceasefire and allow them to attend services on Christmas Eve, as well as on Christmas Day," Putin said.

Within a mere hour after President Putin declared there would be a 36-hour ceasefire for all Russian forces along the line of contact in observation of Orthodox Christmas, Zelensky's office has issued a firm rejection, calling it "hypocrisy" and demanding that all Russian troops must leave occupied territory immediately.

 

Zelensky advisor Mykhailo Podolyak announced on Twitter, that Russian forces…

 

must leave the occupied territories - only then will it have a "temporary truce". Keep hypocrisy to yourself.

Michigan Democratic Sen. Debbie Stabenow announced Thursday that she will not seek reelection in 2024 after serving four terms in Congress.

 

"Inspired by a new generation of leaders, I have decided to pass the torch in the U.S. Senate," Stabenow, chairwoman of the Senate Democratic Policy Committee, said in a statement.

 

Stabenow, who was elected to the House in 1996 and the Senate in 2000, pledged to continue working for Michiganders during the next two years.

 

"When my term ends, I intend to begin a new chapter in my life that includes continuing to serve our State outside of elected office while spending precious time with my amazing 96-year-old mom and my wonderful family," she said.

 

Although Michigan certified President Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 election, former President Donald Trump won the 2016 election in the battleground state. This leaves open the possibility that Michigan could elect a Republican to the Senate in 2024.
