Background During a conversation with Trump, Kremlin ruler Vladimir Putin once again rejected the US proposal for a 30day complete ceasefire, which Ukraine had previously agreed to.
Instead, he backed a commitment from both parties to refrain from attacking energy facilities for 30 days.
The parties also agreed to discuss the safety of shipping in the Black Sea and to set up Russian and American expert groups to discuss the Ukrainian settlement.
Following the conversation, the White House said that peace talks on the RussoUkrainian war should begin immediately in the Middle East.
Meanwhile, Zelenskyy stressed that Putin had effectively rejected the proposal for a complete ceasefire by launching a largescale drone attack on Ukrainian cities on the night of 1819 March.
