I don't recall hearing about 20 ceasefire agreements.
I think somebody has misunderstood a comment made by Zelenskyy at the International Summit on the Support of Ukraine, held this February just passed. Zelenskyy said:
Zelenskyy is talking about the ceasefire which formed part of the Minsk agreements. Representatives from both Ukraine and Russia signed these agreements, with the final protocol's first point being:
This is the ceasefire agreement which Russia has violated. That is to say, there haven't been 20 separate ceasefire agreements, there was one which Zelenskyy told the Summit Russia had violated more than 25 times.
That makes more sense. 20 separate ceasefire agreements in the space of ~8 years would be quite eyebrow raising.
