Limited Ukraine Truce Faces Criticism as Strikes Persist

The 30-day agreement between Trump and Putin targeting energy infrastructure has been undermined by continued Russian attacks on civilian areas.

  • Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin agreed to a 30-day truce focused on halting strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure, but broader ceasefire terms were rejected by Russia.
  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky criticized the truce as insufficient, citing ongoing Russian strikes on civilian infrastructure, including hospitals and residential buildings.
  • The U.S. pressured Ukraine to accept the limited truce, while Russia demanded the cessation of Western military aid as a condition for broader peace talks.
  • Negotiations on the truce terms are set to begin on March 23 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, with both U.S. and Russian delegations participating.
  • European allies reaffirmed their military support for Ukraine, rejecting territorial concessions and emphasizing the need to maintain Ukraine's sovereignty.
