> The Financial Times, citing European officials, reported that the Trump administration threatened to suspend a mechanism for buying US weapons for Ukraine—and to stop sharing intelligence—unless Kyiv halted strikes on Russian energy infrastructure. The pressure came before Trump announced an energy ceasefire. Zelensky’s office said it knew of no agreement, and Russia struck a Kharkiv power plant after the announcement.
