An Exclusive Interview With Ukraine’s President Zelensky

Zelensky says Ukraine will only halt refinery strikes if Russia accepts a full energy-infrastructure ceasefire, while racing to field its own cheap missile-defense system.

• Winter package sought: Zelensky asked Trump for military aid including Patriot missile systems and technologies to help Ukraine survive winter and pressure Putin toward ending the war.
• Energy ceasefire proposed: Zelensky says Ukraine strikes Russian refineries in response to Russian attacks on Ukrainian electricity and water infrastructure, and will stop only if Russia agrees to a full energy ceasefire.
