Zelenskyy calls Trump’s weeklong truce an 'opportunity,' not a binding deal

TL;DR Summary
Zelenskyy framed Donald Trump’s weeklong truce proposal as an opportunity rather than a formal ceasefire, saying it could start de-escalation talks if Russia stops striking Ukraine’s energy infrastructure in exchange for Kyiv halting attacks on Russian oil facilities; he cautioned Moscow’s sincerity remains uncertain while Russia signaled possible renewed strikes as cold weather returns, and Western aid rushes to mitigate Ukraine’s energy crisis.
