US President Donald Trump has claimed that Russia and Ukraine have agreed to stop attacks on energy infrastructure. He said the proposed energy ceasefire would take effect immediately, according to a news agency report.

However, Russia has not confirmed the reported agreement. The announcement has raised hopes for a possible pause in attacks on energy facilities amid the ongoing war between the two countries.

British and Canadian officials have welcomed the reported energy ceasefire. Their response followed Trump’s statement that both sides had agreed to suspend attacks on energy infrastructure.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also responded to Trump’s announcement. He said Ukraine supported an energy ceasefire and called on Russia to follow the same approach.

Zelenskyy added that Ukraine was waiting for details of the proposed agreement from the United States. He did not confirm that both sides had formally implemented the reported arrangement.

Attacks on energy infrastructure have remained a major concern during the Russia-Ukraine war. Damage to power facilities can disrupt electricity supplies and affect essential services for civilians.

The reported proposal could provide an opportunity to reduce damage to energy facilities if both countries implement it. However, the lack of confirmation from Moscow leaves questions about the agreement’s status.

Further details from the United States, Russia and Ukraine may clarify the terms and implementation of the proposed ceasefire. For now, the announcement remains based on Trump’s claim and Ukraine’s stated support.
