Despite the truce announcement, Russia has continued its attacks on Ukrainian energy and oil facilities, causing power outages for tens of thousands of families. The Kremlin denies making any commitments to the truce, while the U.S. administration continues to pressure Ukraine to cease attacks on Russian oil facilities. Zelensky called on the U.S. to pressure Russia to face consequences for failing to adhere to the truce, stating that Russia must be the one to give peace a chance.",
