Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will meet U.S. President Donald Trump today in New York on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly to seek an energy ceasefire with Russia, according to Reuters. Trump has publicly claimed Ukraine and Russia agreed not to strike each other's energy facilities, but Russia attacked a Kyiv gas station the next day. Trump has urged Zelensky to halt strikes on Russian refineries, while Kyiv refuses to act unilaterally. Zelensky also plans to discuss securing Patriot missile systems for winter if Russia does not de-escalate. Russia has increased drone and ballistic missile use, and may prepare massive strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure this winter.
