Ukraine is ready for an energy truce on the condition of reciprocity
Published
Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha has made an important statement regarding a possible cessation of attacks on energy infrastructure facilities. According to him, Ukraine is ready to discuss an energy truce with Russia, but the main condition is full reciprocity from both sides.
Sybiha emphasized that any agreements must be fair and honored by both countries. He also added that the international community should treat statements from the Russian leadership with great caution. The Minister stressed that trust in Vladimir Putin's words is minimal due to previous experience with the violation of international agreements.
The issue of protecting the energy system is critically important for Ukraine, especially as the winter period approaches. Constant shelling of critical infrastructure causes significant harm to the civilian population and the state's economy, which is why any initiative that could reduce these risks is viewed by diplomats as a potential step toward stabilizing the situation.
Currently, official Kyiv continues to insist that the security of energy facilities must become a priority for international partners. Ukraine remains open to dialogue, but only on the condition that Russia ceases its aggressive actions against the country's energy sector and adheres to the commitments it has made.
