The whole point of cutting aid was to let Ukraine know who’s boss. Now that dominance has been established, things can go back to business as usual.
It would seem so, it is predicated on a ceasefire.
It was always just theatre. Nothing has changed. They’re just doing a PR stunt now pretending like Trump was so tough on Zelensky it pushed him to agree to a ceasefire proposal. It’s an exercise in narrative control because Russia has already said it would not accept a ceasefire (which would only benefit Ukraine at this point since it is losing ground all along the line and needs time to regroup, dig in and rearm) unless its demands are met.
Pay attention to what’s happening on the battlefield, not in the media circus.
Would you mind recommending some source of information on what’s happening on the battlefield in a spare moment?

That channel has daily updates and is relatively neutral.
The news megathread on Hexbear always has a section in the header titled Russia-Ukraine conflict where they list out a number of sources. It’s somewhat out of date and some of those sources are now either defunct or lower quality than they used to be, but it’s still a good place to start.
Else you can also use Yandex search and look for Russian language (just run them through a translator) news sources which tend to be the most up to date.
