President Donald Trump stated on Monday that Russia and Ukraine have reached an agreement to refrain from striking each other’s energy facilities during the ongoing conflict. The disclosure was made via a post on Truth Social.
“Ukraine has agreed not to hit Russian Energy targets. Russia has agreed to do likewise!” Trump wrote. This announcement arrives as global markets face increasing pressure, with both gasoline and diesel prices climbing in recent weeks.
The potential de-escalation regarding energy infrastructure marks a significant development in the war, as attacks on power grids and fuel depots have been central to the conflict’s impact on civilian populations and economic stability.
