Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Sunday that only Russia was responsible for the war, after U.S. President Donald Trump said Ukraine should get a new leader.
Mr Trump said on Saturday that Mr Zelenskyy had not done enough to end the war and blamed him for high U.S. diesel prices. Mr Zelenskyy said on X that Ukraine would stop striking Russian oil refineries if Russia stopped striking Ukraine’s energy infrastructure.
Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said Mr Zelenskyy has the support of the Ukrainian people and that they have the right to decide who leads them.
Mr Trump agreed on Friday with Russian President Vladimir Putin to buy diesel from Russia. Ukrainian and European officials criticised the deal. Fuel prices worldwide affect import costs in Sri Lanka.
Separately, Yandex said a Ukrainian drone attack halted its data centre in Vladimir, east of Moscow, the third strike on its facilities in four days.
