Trump: Zelensky must be ousted & Russia attacks Ukrainian power plant hours after ‘energy ceasefire’

Trump: Zelensky must be ousted & Russia attacks Ukrainian power plant hours after ‘energy ceasefire’

Day 1,688.

Today, after a weekend that has surely seen America’s global moral authority fundamentally weakened, we try to make sense of the dizzying news reports and developments in the war. President Zelensky called Donald Trump’s extraordinary decision to buy fuel from Russia “weak” which, coming after he failed to secure the Nobel Peace prize – again – Mr Trump took in a typically gracious and statesmanlike manner. Then, despite claims from the US President that he’d brokered an energy ceasefire, neither side took any notice. We try to work out what it all means, and whether all that has actually been achieved this weekend is that US taxpayers' dollars will now go directly to kill Ukrainian civilians.
