UKRAINIAN President Volodymyr Zelensky said today that an offer from Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin not to attack energy infrastructure was “very much at odds with reality” following an overnight barrage of drone strikes across the country.
President Zelensky said that he would speak with US President Donald Trump later in the day and expected to hear more about the US leader’s phone call with President Putin about a ceasefire.
Mr Zelensky told a news conference in Helsinki: “Even last night, after Putin’s conversation with Trump, when Putin said that he was allegedly giving orders to stop strikes on Ukrainian energy, there were 150 drones launched overnight, including on energy facilities.”
