Ukraine's Zelensky says Russia already violated Trump-brokered ceasefire proposal
Zelensky later reiterated Ukraine's support for de-escalation, emphasizing that "it is important that Russia support it as well."
On October 11, 2026, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky asserted that Russia had already breached the ceasefire proposal proposed by US President Donald Trump the previous day. According to Zelensky, Moscow launched a targeted strike on a power plant in Kharkiv, exacerbating the already fragile energy system. Additionally, Zelensky reported further strikes on Monday involving Russian drones.
Despite these attacks, Zelensky stated that Ukraine had abided by the ceasefire terms, refraining from strikes on Russian oil refineries or the energy sector during the two days since Trump announced an energy ceasefire. However, Russian aggression continued, with attacks on Ukraine's energy facilities and critical infrastructure, sending clear signals that Russia had no intention of refraining from strikes on Ukraine.
Zelensky emphasized that Ukraine is ready for reciprocal steps towards de-escalation, but Russia did not heed the American President's call. The White House has not yet responded to CNN's request for comment on the agreement's reach and subsequent steps.
