Please tell us when the ceasefire begins, we are ready and we will accept it,” Zelenskyy said, as per Axios. “The ceasefire announcement was news for me. But if Russians agree to an energy ceasefire, Ukraine will agree. If President Trump negotiated it with Putin.
Meanwhile, Trump announced on Sunday that Russia and Ukraine had agreed to an immediate ceasefire targeting energy infrastructure, urging both sides to adhere to the arrangement.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Sunday that he would organise elections in Ukraine if Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed to a 60-day ceasefire, responding to criticism from US President Donald Trump over his leadership.
“I think it’s time for Ukraine to get a new president,” Trump told reporters at the White House. Responding to the remarks, Zelenskyy said the choice of Ukraine’s leader rested with its people and noted that Putin would also like to see a change in the country’s leadership. Zelenskyy also said Ukraine was being blamed for rising fuel prices even though the war in the Middle East was driving up prices globally.
Earlier on Sunday, Zelenskyy said Ukraine was prepared to stop attacking Russian oil refineries if Moscow halted its strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure.
