Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has responded to Donald Trump’s call to stop attacks on Russia’s energy infrastructure, saying Ukraine is ready for de-escalation, but that it must be mutual.
In a post on X, he stated that Ukraine’s energy sector, critical infrastructure and food export supplies must cease to be targets for Russia, and this will lead to corresponding de-escalation steps, Caliber.Az reports.
“Indeed, this Russian war against Ukraine and against common sense must be ended,” he wrote.
He also said the war causes more problems every new week, let alone every new year.
“We have already made dozens of diplomatic proposals on how to end this war with dignity, guarantee security, and prevent new Russian invasions. Right now, there is a dialogue with President Trump and America. There are also ideas on the table for bringing peace closer, starting with strong de-escalation steps,” Zelenskyy stressed.
“Solutions are possible. We are ready to work on this, and we will discuss it with our partners on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York,” the Ukrainian leader added.
