Axios: Trump's "energy ceasefire" refers only to halting attacks on oil refineries

A White House representative, as reported by the US news outlet Axios, has clarified what US President Donald Trump meant by an "energy ceasefire" in the context of Russia's war against Ukraine. According to this explanation, the American proposal concerns only stopping attacks on the oil refineries of both countries.

The proposal is therefore limited to oil refining facilities and does not cover energy infrastructure as a whole. The report by the Ukrainian outlet Ukrainska Pravda, which relayed the Axios account, gives only this brief explanation and does not mention other details of the proposal.

The clarification matters because the term "energy ceasefire" could be understood more broadly than intended. The full material with further details was published by Ukrainska Pravda.
