Ukraine at OSCE: Strikes on Russian oil refineries can stop only under mutual “energy truce”

Ukraine’s Permanent Representative to the International Organizations in Vienna, Yurii Vitrenko, said this during a meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council on Thursday, Ukrinform reports. “We are ready for a ceasefire. We are ready to stop strikes on Russian oil refineries provided that Russia stops attacking Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. This is fair,” the Ukrainian diplomat stressed. He pointed out that Ukraine had repeatedly confirmed its readiness for various ceasefire arrangements, but instead of taking genuine steps toward peace, Moscow continued to intensify attacks on civilians and critical infrastructure.
