Trump claims Putin agreed not to strike Kyiv, other Ukrainian cities 'for a week', Zelensky welcomes initiative
"U.S. President Donald Trump said that his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, agreed to his request not to strike Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities and towns for a week.
"I personally asked President Putin not to fire on Kyiv and the cities and towns for a week," Trump said during a cabinet meeting, stressing that Ukraine is currently facing extremely cold temperatures. "And he agreed to do that. And I have to tell you, it was very nice."
President Volodymyr Zelensky thanked Trump and called his remarks “an important statement” on the possibility of providing security for Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities during the extreme winter period. He added that Ukrainian and U.S. teams discussed the issue during recent trilateral talks in the United Arab Emirates with Russia.
"Power supply is a foundation of life. We value the efforts of our partners to help us protect lives," Zelensky said on X."
