Russian forces intensify raids on Ukrainian energy infrastructure despite promises to Trump. The Kremlin reiterates its demands for a peace agreement

Hopes for a ceasefire agreement between Russia and Ukraine by Easter are receding. Moscow has continued to strike Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, despite Vladimir Putin’s commitment to US President Donald Trump. According to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), Russian forces are advancing in both the Sumy and Kursk regions, while the targeted bombing of energy facilities indicates that the Kremlin may be exploiting any ambiguity in the terms of the agreement to continue attacks with short-range weapons.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has denounced a new wave of attacks against the country’s energy system, accusing Moscow of not respecting the fragile partial truce agreement. According to the Russian Defence Ministry, however, 93 Ukrainian drones were intercepted and destroyed in the last few hours, mainly over the Kursk region.

Meanwhile, the Kremlin will send Kirill Dmitriev, director of the Russian Direct Investment Fund, to Washington for talks with the US administration. If confirmed, it would be the first visit of a senior Russian official to the US since the beginning of the war.
