Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy agreed to a proposal to halt strikes on energy assets as an initial step in President Donald Trump’s effort to end the war that began with Russia’s full-scale invasion three years ago.
“One of the first steps toward fully ending the war could be ending strikes on energy and other civilian infrastructure,” Zelenskiy said in a statement on X after a call with Trump on Wednesday. “I supported this step, and Ukraine confirmed that we are ready to implement it.”
Trump, who had stormy exchanges earlier with Zelenskiy, described their call as “very good,” and top US officials called it “fantastic.” Trump, who at one point cut off weapons shipments and intelligence-sharing with Ukraine promised fresh support, according to a statement on the call from Secretary of State Marco Rubio and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz.
Zelenskiy “asked for additional air defense systems to protect his civilians, particularly Patriot missile systems,” and “President Trump agreed to work with him to find what was available particularly in Europe,” they said.
