Ukraine Ready for De-Escalation if Russia Halts Strikes on Energy Targets

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has stated that his country is ready to take "de-escalatory steps" if Russia does the same, following US President Donald Trump's announcement that both countries have agreed to cease strikes on energy targets. However, Zelensky emphasized that no genuine desire from Russia has been seen to end the war. Meanwhile, Trump has blamed Ukraine's attacks on Russian refineries for causing a shortage in diesel fuel, leading to climbing international oil prices.
