Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Monday that Russia had violated the Russia-Ukraine energy ceasefire arrangement announced by U.S. President Donald Trump, and called on Washington to act to make sure Moscow complies. Zelensky said Russian forces struck a thermal power plant in Kharkiv and added that Kyiv still has not received the specific terms of the energy ceasefire. He said he learned from media reports that Trump had announced both sides had agreed to it. Zelensky also said Russian forces carried out more than 200 attacks on Ukraine’s power generation and transmission facilities over the past week, with another 17 attacks targeting oil and gas infrastructure, while Ukrainian forces did not strike Russian refineries on Sunday night. European officials remained cautious about whether the ceasefire would hold. French President Emmanuel Macron said he had seen no sign in the past 48 hours that Russia was observing it. EU foreign ministers on Monday approved nearly 1,600 additional sanctions listings targeting Russia’s military-industrial complex, with more than half tied to the ballistic missile production chain. Russia has not responded to the ceasefire arrangement.
