Trump Declares Energy Ceasefire Between Russia and Ukraine
Ukrainian President Zelensky and President Trump of the United States jointly announced an 'energy ceasefire' between Russia and Ukraine. Trump declared the ceasefire effective immediately on Truth Social, stating both parties have agreed. Zelensky confirmed that if the Russians agree to the ceasefire, Ukraine will also agree. This is the second time Trump has made such an announcement, and it has been noted by Bloomberg's Javier Blas. The ceasefire has not yet begun, and the impact on oil prices and crypto markets is currently minimal. The U.S. midterm elections are less than one month away, and the odds of a Democratic sweep of both the House and Senate have risen to 62% according to Polymarket.
