Russia reserves right to pull out of the moratorium on energy strikes

• Kremlin says Putin did not raise idea of Ukraine being put under temporary administration with Trump.
• Says Ukrainian army is out of control and not heeding orders from Ukraine’s leadership.
• Says armed nationalist forces in Ukraine are gaining strength which is why Putin mentioned idea of temporary external administration.
• Says Ukraine is continuing to strike Russian energy targets despite moratorium on attacks.
• Says Russia reserves right to pull out of the moratorium on energy strikes if Kiev violates accord.
• Says Russia is respecting the agreement for now and is not striking Ukrainian energy targets.
• Says it would be however illogical to stand by and watch Ukraine strike Russian energy targets ‘every night’.

It still looks like a long way to go before seeing the war in Ukraine ending.
