President Trump pushed Russia and Ukraine to agree to halt strikes on each other’s energy infrastructure, as the White House continued to face bipartisan criticism over moves in recent days to ease U.S. pressure on Moscow and shift blame for the continued fighting to Kyiv.

»Effective immediately, there is an ENERGY CEASEFIRE in the War between Russia and Ukraine. Both parties have agreed,« Trump posted on Truth Social on Sunday, despite Moscow’s rejection of such a deal so far and no sign that there was an agreement in place.
