If Russia wants us to stop our long-range strikes against its oil refineries and oil exports, then Russia must stop its strikes against our energy system and critical infrastructure, and stop killing our people. This is only fair.
If President Trump negotiated it with Putin, please tell us when the ceasefire begins. We are ready, and we will accept it.
“On this question, I know that Putin wanted very much to change the president in Ukraine.”
This energy ceasefire, it can work, and it can become a major step toward ending the war if the Americans truly step in now and make sure Russians respect it.
