Zelenskyy to speak with Trump after Russia defies Ukraine ceasefire

Summary

Hours after Trump and Putin agreed to halt attacks on energy infrastructure, Russia launched drone and missile strikes on Ukraine, damaging homes and injuring civilians.

A hospital in Sumy was hit, forcing evacuations. Ukraine also struck a Russian oil depot. Putin rejected a full ceasefire, demanding an end to Western military aid to Ukraine.

Trump praised the call as "productive," while Zelenskyy awaited U.S. clarification before responding.

Talks on a broader ceasefire will begin Sunday in Jeddah, but skepticism remains over Russia’s commitment to peace.

There might be some skepticism, yes…
- Putin agreed to halt attacks on energy infrastructure
  damaging homes and injuring civilians
  They technically didnt violate the terms i guess, but this is not what was intended i believe.
  
  they specifically did target energy infrastructure so yes, they did https://kyivindependent.com/zelensky-trump-to-hold-a-conversation-on-march-19/
  
  I think there is talk of Russia striking energy infrastructure?
- "Peace"
- Skepticism rises as to whether the aggressor who could have peace by leaving the invaded country alone actually wants peace. It’s a total mystery.

theres no world where trump and/or putin is in power where there is peace for a sovereign ukraine.
they have to go.

Trump praised the call as “productive,” while Zelensky awaited U.S. clarification before responding.
Look what they did to my boy.

Geez, Israel just wipes their ass with cease fire agreements, Russia just wipes their ass with cease fires...
They must have something in common

Putin has now reached a level of Skaven where's making ceasefire deals just so he can break. There hasn't been enough betrayal for his liking yet, so he must manufacture some. Unhinged behavior.
