  "account": "A senior Russian lawmaker questioned President Donald Trump's claim of an energy ceasefire with Ukraine, suggesting he might be attempting to manipulate oil prices. Igor Ananskikh, first deputy chair of Russia's State Duma energy committee, stated he had no information about the ceasefire, expressing doubt about its reality. Dmitry Novikov, first deputy chair of the Duma's international affairs committee, said he hadn't attended the negotiations and advised the reporter to contact Trump's press service. Trump declared the ceasefire effective immediately, with both sides agreeing. However, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reported he was unaware of the announcement, as it came as a surprise to him. The following day, Russia attacked Kharkiv's CHP-5 power plant, according to Zelensky. Ukraine's Presidential Office confirmed the attack occurred after Trump's announcement.",
