Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told US President Donald Trump that Ukraine is willing to stop attacking Russian oil refineries if Russia ceases its attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure. Speaking at the UN General Assembly in New York, Zelensky described this as an “energy ceasefire” and requested more Patriot missiles to bolster air defenses against expected winter strikes. He also expressed hope for a trilateral meeting with Trump and Vladimir Putin to end the war, while warning of continued Russian provocations against neighboring European nations.
