Putin Immediately Humiliates Trump After Breakthrough Boast

Pool / Getty Images Vladimir Putin’s forces bombarded Ukrainian energy facilities within hours of Donald Trump’s boast that he had secured a partial ceasefire.

Trump, 80, announced Sunday that Russia and Ukraine had agreed to immediately stop attacking each other’s energy infrastructure.

While providing no details of the supposed breakthrough, he declared on Truth Social that the two countries had reached an agreement.

“Both parties have agreed.

Do not break it!” the U.S. president wrote.

Except nobody else seems to have got the memo.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Trump’s announcement, which Moscow had not publicly confirmed, caught him by surprise.

Zelensky, 48, said the purported agreement had been “news to me,” while insisting Ukraine would halt strikes against Russian energy targets only if Moscow reciprocated.

By Monday, he was openly mocking Trump’s demands.

Zelensky told the Warsaw Security Forum that Putin, 74, apparently “does not read Truth Social” after Russian forces attacked a power station in Kharkiv almost immediately after Trump’s declaration.

The attacks continued overnight, leaving Ukrainians without electricity and damaging infrastructure across several regions.

In Izyum, northeastern Ukraine, residents were left without power after Russian strikes damaged the local electricity network, the BBC reported .

Railway and electricity installations were also attacked in the western Zhytomyr region, where firefighters battled blazes from repeated Russian strikes, the outlet said.

In a separate attack on Sunday evening, a Russian drone strike killed three people and injured nine, including children, in the village of Pisochyn, according to the Associated Press .
