Zelenskyy says Putin's 'words' aren't enough as he speaks with Trump on energy ceasefire
President Donald Trump spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Wednesday as talks continue to try to end the Russia-Ukraine war.
Summary
Trump and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy discussed a partial ceasefire on energy infrastructure following Trump’s failed attempt to get Putin to agree to a 30-day ceasefire.
Trump briefed Zelenskyy on his talk with Putin, who only pledged to halt attacks on energy sites. Zelenskyy welcomed the step but said Putin’s words alone were “not enough.”
Russia and Ukraine continued to exchange strikes despite the talks.
The U.S. will help Ukraine acquire more air defenses, and intelligence sharing will continue despite Russia’s demand to halt Western military support.
