Ukraine Wants Specifics From Partners on Halting Strikes, Zelenskyy Says

Zelenskyy said Ukraine is ready for a mutual halt only if Western partners ensure Russia stops attacks on energy, food and other critical infrastructure.

  • On Monday, President Volodymyr Zelensky stated Ukraine would be prepared to halt strikes on Russia if international partners secure reliable, long-term guarantees against attacks on energy facilities and infrastructure.
  • Zelensky's comments appeared to distance KYIV from President Donald Trump, who claimed the two nations had already agreed not to hit Russian Energy targets.
  • Writing on Telegram, the leader expressed doubt about Moscow's intentions, stating, "Ukraine is not certain that Russia is willing to stick to any agreement."
  • KYIV demands enforceable commitments, requiring any accord be "reliable, long-term, and actually have a real impact on people's lives."
  • Zelensky signaled the burden now rests on partners to provide specifics for enforcement, describing the halt as a "first step toward peace.
