3 articles from Euronews, The Hill, CNBC.

News Clarion synthesisAcross 3 sources

President Trump announced that Ukraine and Russia had agreed to halt attacks on each other's energy infrastructure, citing concerns about global diesel prices. However, Zelenskyy said Ukraine would only stop targeting Russian energy assets if Russia does the same and the US provides guarantees, requiring Moscow to commit to peace on a long-term basis. The agreement's credibility was undermined when Russian forces struck a petrol station in Kyiv on Tuesday, the day after Trump's announcement. France 24 reports the attack suggests the claimed truce was already in doubt.
