Carney: Trump's 'energy ceasefire' could 'de-escalate' war in Ukraine
Carney said the ceasefire could de-escalate the war, but he warned a Russian diesel deal would add revenue for Moscow and weaken allied sanctions.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump announced an "energy ceasefire" between Ukraine and Russia, which Prime Minister Mark Carney said could help "wind down" the war and spare thousands from hardship.
- A diesel fuel supply agreement between the United States and the Kremlin, announced Friday, drew sharp criticism from Carney, who argued it undermines global efforts to end the conflict.
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy voiced support for the ceasefire but warned that Russian forces carried out more than 200 strikes on electricity facilities and 17 on energy infrastructure this past week.
- Republican Senator Thom Tillis questioned the diesel deal's legality, though Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent defended the administration's authority on Fox News, while Carney and Zelenskyy coordinated on the European FREYJA anti-ballistic system.
- As Ukraine navigates uncertainty surrounding the new fuel arrangement, the country is pivoting toward independent defense capabilities while the administration focuses on relieving price pressures on Americans.
