Yes. On September 22, 2026, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy was due to meet U.S. President Donald Trump at the United Nations in New York, where he planned to push for an energy truce with Russia, Reuters reported. The talks came amid intensifying aerial attacks on energy infrastructure and ports, with Ukrainians concerned Russia could target heating and power facilities heading into winter.
After a Sunday phone call with Trump, Zelenskiy said there was “diplomatic momentum” and “ideas for de-escalation steps,” though Russia had not signaled it sought to pause the air war. A person familiar with the matter said an energy ceasefire was among the topics under discussion, and that Trump had asked Zelenskiy to stop attacks on Russian oil refineries as part of a broader de-escalation effort.
