Overview

  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that his conversation with Donald Trump was limited to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, contradicting Trump's broader proposal for US ownership of all Ukrainian nuclear plants.
  • The Zaporizhzhia plant, Europe's largest nuclear facility, has been under Russian control since 2022 and remains a critical issue in Ukraine's energy and security strategy.
  • Trump suggested US ownership of Ukrainian nuclear plants as a security measure, arguing that American expertise could better protect Ukraine's energy infrastructure.
  • Zelenskyy emphasized the importance of the Zaporizhzhia plant for Ukraine and Europe, noting it could take over two years to restore its operations if reclaimed.
  • Limited agreements to halt attacks on energy infrastructure were reached between Ukraine and Russia, with further negotiations planned in Saudi Arabia.
