Putin agrees in Trump call to pause Ukraine energy attacks but no full ceasefire

President Vladimir Putin rejected an immediate and complete ceasefire in Ukraine and agreed to stop attacks on the energy infrastructure according to the call with US President Donald Trump.

The Russian leader has not joined the truce for a comprehensive month when the Trump team recently worked with the Ukrainians in Saudi Arabia.

He said a comprehensive ceasefire only effective when foreign military aid and information sharing with Ukraine ended. Ukrainian European allies have previously rejected such conditions.

The US conversation on Ukraine is scheduled to continue in Jedda, Saudi Arabia on Sunday, and Steve Witkoff is a special envoy to the Middle East.

In the three -year war grinding, Russia has recovered its territory in the Kursk area occupied by the invasion of Ukraine last six months ago.

The results of the Trump-Putin phone on Tuesday resulted in retreat from the United States in a week ago, but the two leaders agreed that peace talks would occur immediately in the Middle East.

When the US delegation met with Ukrainian representatives in Jedda last Tuesday, they persuaded KYIV to agree with the proposal for “immediate” ceasefire, “crossing land, air and the sea.

President VolodyMyr Zelensky, who arrived in Helsinki, Finland for his official visit shortly after Trump and Putin’s call, said Ukraine was open to the ceasefire ideas dealing with the energy infrastructure, but he wanted more details.

He later accused Putin rejected the ceasefire by shooting a Russian drone attack.

Ukrainian leaders have SUMY’s hospitals and Sloven Screed’s power supplies, Ukrainian leaders.

Zelensky said, “Unfortunately, there was a blow to private infrastructure,” Zelensky said in X. “Putin has effectively rejected a complete ceasefire proposal.”

Trump previously wrote in social media that the call with Russian leaders was “very good and productive,” and “many factors of peace contracts were discussed.”

“We agreed to immediately ceasefire for all energy and infrastructure, and we talked about the truth society, understanding that we will try quickly for a complete ceasefire and ultimately end this terrible war between Russia and Ukrainians.

Zelensky said in September that about 80%of Ukraine’s energy infrastructure was destroyed by a Russian bomb.

KYIV in turn, drones and missiles were deeply striking in Russian territory, oil and gas facilities.

Following the dialogue in Jedda last week, Secretary of State Marco Rubio told the Russian court after the Ukrainians accepted Washington’s complete ceasefire offer.

But on Tuesday, the White House’s statement based on Trump-Putin’s call did not mention the agreement with KYIV.

Instead, the two leaders agreed that “the movement to peace will begin with energy and infrastructure stop,” and negotiations on “the Maritime Architecture of the Black Sea, the full truce and permanent peace”.

However, he mentioned that Kremlin’s own statement for this call was a “important issue of a series of issues” of implementing a contract with KYIV. And the end of Ukraine’s support for foreigners and information is Russia’s “core conditions.”

Trump and Putin agreed to the immediate technical dialogue on long -term consensus, and Kremlin said it should be “complex, stable and long -term”.

But it’s not clear whether this means additional negotiations between the United States and Russia or bilateral talks between Russia and Ukraine.

Kremlin also said that Trump has supported Putin’s idea of ​​holding an ice hockey game among professional US and Russian players.

In 2022, after the country invaded Ukraine, Russia was frozen at overseas ice hockey events.

KYIV is probably playing Tuesday, while playing a lot of telephone calls as Putin for time, while adding terrible conditions to a settlement.

Putin claimed that Russia had previously controlled Ukrainian territory seized.

The Russian leader has already tasted Trump’s preparation to block US support for Ukraine, and is trying to repeat it by throwing the ball back to KYIV.

Earlier this month, the United States temporarily suspended military and information aid in Ukraine after Trump and Zelen Ski were changed at the elliptical office.

Trump and his vice -president JD Vance accused Zelensky in front of the world media and did not thank the US support.

In a press conference in Berlin with French President Emmanuel Macron in Berlin, the German Prime Minister said the German prime minister said that a limited ceasefire plan was an important first stage, but demanded a complete ceasefire again.

Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer [the] Downing Street spokesman is an unwavering support in the UK. ”
