Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky urges US President Donald Trump to impose new sanctions on Russia “now” following deadly strikes on Ukraine. He says attacks intensify as Kyiv and Moscow step up operations, and that efforts led by the United States to reach an end to the war are stalled.
Zelensky also calls for a broader shift toward stability during winter. One proposal cited by outlets is a truce arrangement that would cover Russian strikes on energy targets over the coming months. The different reporting focuses on Zelensky’s pressure for tighter US measures versus his call for a limited ceasefire affecting critical infrastructure.
Both accounts place the renewed diplomacy and sanctions push in the context of ongoing fighting and the lack of agreement on how to wind down the conflict.
