President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said that it is necessary to find an opportunity to establish the so-called “energy truce,” in which Russia would stop strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, and Ukraine would not strike in response.
Zelensky said this during the Yalta European Strategy (YES) forum.
According to him, this also involves opening the Black Sea and ensuring the protection of the energy systems of both countries.
“If the Russians do not strike our energy system, and our people have light, Ukraine will also not respond in kind,” the president noted.
Zelensky emphasized that Ukraine has the capacity to respond to Russian strikes, including those on energy facilities.
“Russia knows that if they strike, and they are preparing to strike our energy system — Russia will receive the same. If they cause us blackouts, we will try to respond with dignity,” he said.
