Zelenskyy Open to Energy Ceasefire if Russia Commits; Strikes Continue
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed willingness to halt strikes on Russian energy and critical infrastructure if international partners can secure a genuine, long-term Russian commitment to cease attacks on Ukraine's facilities. This follows US President Donald Trump's claim that both sides agreed to stop targeting each other's energy infrastructure, a statement Kyiv has not formally endorsed. Despite the proposal, Russia and Ukraine continued exchanging strikes on energy and infrastructure sites, with Russia launching drone attacks on Ukrainian cities and Ukraine targeting Russian refineries. Zelenskyy emphasized the need for reliable guarantees before any de-escalation.
