|March 19, 2025
RUSSIAN President Vladimir Putin on Monday agreed to pause strikes on energy targets in Ukraine for 30 days, Kremlin said.
The commitment came during an extensive discussion over phone with US President Donald Trump. However, there was no agreement on a full-scale ceasefire as Putin set some conditions for the same.
"President Trump and President Putin spoke about the need for peace and a ceasefire in the Ukraine war. Both leaders agreed this conflict needs to end with a lasting peace. They also stressed the need for improved bilateral relations between the United States and Russia. The blood and treasure that both Ukraine and Russia have been spending in this war would be better spent on the needs of their people," a White House statement read.
