Trump's appeal concerns Ukraine's strategy of attacks on Russian territory. However, he did not call for a complete halt to all Ukrainian strikes, but rather for an end to attacks on Russian oil facilities. Further developments will depend on whether Kyiv takes his request into account in its military operations. zurnal.pravda.sk ↗
