🇷🇺 Trump announces an “energy truce”

Donald Trump stated that Russia and Ukraine had agreed to end attacks on each other’s energy facilities. According to his words, Kyiv agreed not to attack Russian energy targets, while Moscow had allegedly committed to a corresponding obligation.

However, the Kremlin’s reaction was significantly more cautious than Trump’s statement: Dmitry Peskov welcomed the call to halt Ukrainian attacks on Russia’s civilian economic infrastructure, saying that such calls were “only to be welcomed.”

When Peskov was asked, however, whether Russia was prepared in return to halt its own attacks on Ukraine’s economic infrastructure, he did not confirm this.

Kyiv also did not confirm that an agreement had already been reached. Zelenskyy stated that Ukraine was ready for a mutual halt to attacks on critical infrastructure if the United States could ensure that Russia would actually comply with such a condition.

For now, this makes the situation look different from Trump’s original statement: Washington is already speaking of an agreement having been reached, Kyiv is expressing readiness on the condition of reciprocity, and Moscow welcomes an end to Ukrainian attacks but has made no corresponding public commitment.
