Zelensky says Ukraine backs US-proposed energy ceasefire and trilateral talks

axios.com —

The Trump administration is proposing an energy infrastructure ceasefire, reopening the Black Sea grain corridor, and a trilateral U.S.-Russia-Ukraine meeting, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Wednesday, with Ukraine expressing readiness for the deal. The U.S. push aims to halt Ukrainian attacks on Russian diesel fuel to ease global energy prices, though the Kremlin said conditions are not ready for peace talks. Russia launched missile attacks on Kyiv during Zelensky's interview. Zelensky remains skeptical of Putin's commitment despite U.S. envoy optimism, and expects Trump to prioritize the energy ceasefire first. Technical teams may meet before any leader-level summit, with Abu Dhabi floated as a venue.
