Zelenskyy Offers Conditional Ceasefire and Elections Amid Trump’s Call for New Ukrainian Leader
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has offered to halt attacks on Russian oil refineries if Russia stops striking Ukraine's energy infrastructure, emphasizing that any ceasefire must be reciprocal and backed by guarantees. Zelenskyy also proposed holding national elections if Russia agrees to a 60-day ceasefire, countering US President Donald Trump's calls for new Ukrainian leadership. Trump criticized Zelenskyy for ongoing strikes and blamed him for rising US diesel prices, while Ukrainian officials reaffirmed Zelenskyy's support among Ukrainians and stressed the need for continued Western backing.
