Trump Declares Russia-Ukraine Energy Ceasefire Amid Controversy

This announcement followed his administration's deal to acquire diesel from Russia, which involved lifting existing sanctions. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky vehemently criticized the deal, calling it a 'birthday gift' to Russian President Vladimir Putin that would enable further harm to Ukraine.
