Trump ataca a Zelensky, critica los ataques de Ucrania a las refinerías rusas

U.S. President Donald Trump criticized Ukraine for resuming attacks on Russian oil refineries, calling the actions a "disgrace" that contributes to high global energy prices. The comments came after Ukraine struck a Rosneft refinery southeast of Moscow following President Volodymyr Zelensky’s announcement that Kyiv was abandoning a ceasefire related to energy infrastructure, which Trump had previously announced. Trump stated during an interview with Newsmax that Zelensky’s actions are raising oil prices worldwide. "All he's doing is making the world oil price higher. Well, I think that's a disgrace," Trump said. He added that while there are many potential targets for attack, striking refineries that produce diesel fuel, a resource needed globally, is not serving the world well. Trump’s administration has been attempting to mediate a ceasefire to end the conflict that began with Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. He reiterated his belief that Zelensky and Russian President Vladimir Putin have mutual animosity, complicating efforts to resolve the war. "I’m not a big fan of Zelensky," Trump said. "I think they actually both would like to see it end, but I think I find Zelensky to be more difficult to deal with than Putin." While Trump pressed Kyiv to cease attacks on Russian refineries, Ukraine reportedly faced challenges in using a satellite system critical for battlefield communications and drone operations. According to two U.S. officials and one Western official familiar with the situation, the directive to limit the system’s use originated from within the White House, though the specific individuals responsible for the decision were not identified. Zelensky expressed disappointment over Trump’s agreement with Moscow to allow Russia to deliver over 300,000 tons of diesel to the American and global markets in exchange for eased sanctions. "It’s a shame that we’re losing a strong partner," Zelensky told British journalist Piers Morgan. He also lamented shortcomings in intelligence sharing and internet restrictions, which he claimed hindered Ukrainian drone operations. Ukraine heavily relies on U.S. support, including intelligence data for air defense and satellite internet services like Starlink. Recent Russian drone attacks targeted areas near Poland, leaving 370,000 people without electricity and injuring two individuals. In central Ukraine, five people were injured when drones struck a residential building in Uman. Zelensky is expected to push for additional military and financial assistance from European Union leaders during an upcoming summit in Brussels. Earlier this week, he met with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte and held bilateral discussions with several European leaders. Meanwhile, Russia continued its campaign of missile and drone strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure, causing widespread power outages and disrupting daily life for hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians. The Ukrainian government confirmed that a logistics facility in the Odessa region and a cargo ship heading toward Odessa were struck by Russian forces. The ongoing conflict shows no signs of abating, with both sides continuing to engage in strategic and tactical maneuvers aimed at gaining an advantage. As international mediation efforts persist, the situation remains fluid, with new developments likely to emerge in the coming days.
