  "account": "On October 11th, President Trump declared an \"energy ceasefire\" with Russia, but Ukraine's attacks on Russian energy infrastructure continued unabated. In response, Russia launched a missile strike in Kharkiv that destroyed an apartment building and killed three people. Despite this, the White House claimed both sides were at fault.\n\nOver the course of three days, from October 9th to the 11th, Trump made four decisions that further weakened the West and undermined liberal democracies. These actions encouraged Putin to continue his war against Ukraine and his hybrid war against Europe.\n\nSimultaneously, the US imposed new sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC), an institution crucial for holding Russia accountable for its war of aggression. The sanctions took effect hours after the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Navi Pillay, a former ICC judge. Trump also lifted sanctions on Russian diesel exports, violating federal law and breaching a bipartisan ban on Russian energy imports. This move is seen as a gift to Putin, providing him with more Russian diesel for Americans.\n\nTrump has dismissed Ukraine's elected president, suggesting he get a new leader who could make a deal. He claims Zelenskyy wants to make problems for the world by authorizing strikes on Russian refineries, despite Zelenskyy's repeated proposals for peace talks based on international law. The Kremlin itself revealed Putin's unwillingness to resume peace talks, emphasizing his belief that Ukrainian resistance has \"no prospects whatsoever.\"",
  "summary": "In three days, Washington sanctioned the court that issued Putin’s arrest warrant, lifted its own sanctions on Russian diesel, called for Zelenskyy to step down, and declared an “energy ceasefire” that asks only Ukraine to stop firing. These are not the acts of an ally.",
