I was entirely expecting this to happen so they could wage another forever war. I’m thankful they haven’t done it yet, but given they have a habit of lying and starting invasions, I’m a bit surprised it hasn’t happened.
I hope I’m not getting to conspiracy-brained here.
Basically all parties involved want to look like righteous good guys. The ceasefire is so that they all can sell the conflict to their people when it starts up again.
