[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

We never communicate what we will do next in our operations. Last night, we did not attack any energy facilities on the territory of Russia because President Trump said that there would be an energy ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia. We did not attack, while Russia attacked our gas stations, energy infrastructure, and other facilities.

I think it was Putin’s answer to President Trump. And the message from Russia was very clear – they don't know anything about the energy ceasefire. It's a pity, because they always find reasons not to stop this war. Which is why I think we need more pressure on Russia.

From an interview with Fox News.

Buying Russian diesel violates U.S. law.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Donald Trump and his war in Iran are to blame for our nation's sky-high diesel and gas prices. His latest ploy—buying fuel from his friend Vladimir Putin—reeks of weakness and will help pay for Russia’s war but will do nothing to make life more affordable for American families.

The American people deserve a leader who cares about them, and the Ukrainian people deserve allies who will stand by their side in the fight for a free, democratic, and independent nation.

[Donald Tusk @donaldtusk]

After my today’s talk with @ZelenskyyUa, I’m absolutely convinced that no-one and nothing can break Ukraine and its’ President in their fight against the Russian aggression. I have assured him that he can count on Poland’s and Europe’s full solidarity with the Ukrainian nation.

[Anonymous @YourAnonCentral]

Brent crude prices declined during Ukraine’s sustained attacks on Russian oil infrastructure but surged after the US-Israeli war against Iran began on 28 February 2026.

Trump is 100% to blame for rising fuel costs worldwide, Ukraine had no impact or was actually lowering costs.

[House Republicans @HouseGOP]

Why are we still buying Russian oil?

[Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick 🇺🇸 @RepBrianFitz]

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has the overwhelming support of the United States Congress, he has the overwhelming support of the American people, and he has the overwhelming support of the Ukrainian people. Russian illegally invaded Ukraine, a sovereign and freedom-loving nation, and Russia is squarely to blame for all damage and destruction, to both lives and treasure, that has resulted from Putin’s unprovoked attack.

@ZelenskyyUa, you know that the United States Congress, and the American people, stand 100% behind you. The Ukrainian people are so blessed to have you leading them in these difficult times. We have your back, and we will stand with you until Ukrainian victory is achieved. 🇺🇸 🇺🇦

[Boris Johnson @BorisJohnson]

It is sickening that the USA is now lifting sanctions on Russian fuel, and transparently ridiculous to blame Ukraine for the spike in prices that obviously began with the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Putin is murdering innocent Ukrainian civilians every day. The Ukrainians are fighting for their lives. And yet the White House is apparently determined to force American drivers to bankroll Putin’s slaughter. It won’t work and I doubt it will make much difference to the price of fuel.

If we want Russian oil and gas back on the world market then let’s end this war - with a free, sovereign and independent Ukraine.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

What allowing Russia to sell oil products means was heard most clearly in Kyiv just now, when, after repeated attacks on energy facilities with jet-powered “shaheds,” Russia launched a ballistic missile attack as well. Some of the missiles were intercepted. This once again clearly demonstrates Russia’s true intentions. They count on prolonging the war, terrorizing ordinary people, and destroying infrastructure.

Every additional billion dollars they can earn from exports will be spent on nothing but sourcing and importing critical components and equipment to manufacture weapons, upgrading “shaheds,” producing missiles, and recruiting even more mercenaries to fight at the front. Russia’s choice is war. And they will be ready to end it only when they feel that their ability to drag the war out is diminishing.

Unfortunately, the signals Russia received yesterday were entirely different – signals suggesting that it could simply keep attacking. And this needs to be corrected. Strong signals are needed from the United States, Europe, and other partners – signals in support of Ukraine and to RESTRICT Russia’s ability to wage war and terrorize people. Thank you to everyone who stands with Ukraine!

[Tom Rogers @RogersHistory]

When your so-called friends keep deserting you and betraying you, and your own life and that of your country is under threat every day - Ive no idea how on earth this guy has been through it and keeps going through it. I’ll never admire any public figure more in my lifetime.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Peace never comes through weakness. Today, representatives of the U.S. Congress were in Kyiv – a bipartisan delegation – and I am grateful to them for visiting Ukraine at such a difficult time. They asked: what is needed to end the war? The answer must be strong. There must be sanctions under the Lindsey Graham bill, there must be support for Ukraine in protecting lives, and there must be pressure on Russia for its war. And today, there was a conversation between the leaders of America and Russia. A conversation that leads to something different.

Recently, there was a European decision to lift sanctions on Russian oligarchs. Since then, Russian strikes and the torment of people have only increased. This past week alone, there was a brutal Russian missile strike on a residential building in Pryluky, aerial bombs were dropped on Kramatorsk – on ordinary city buses – and there have been constant attacks on Kyiv’s energy infrastructure and on the life-sustaining infrastructure in Dnipro, Kharkiv, Odesa, and our other cities. Dozens of people have been killed and hundreds wounded.

The Russians are compensating for their inability to achieve their objectives on the battlefield with this kind of terror. This year, Russia is weaker on the battlefield than at any other point in the war. That is why Putin is relying on terror. That is why he is relying on attempts to strike backroom deals to secure some form of pressure relief for Russia, in order to buy more time and more opportunities for war.

Any easing of sanctions against Russia without a clear and lasting de-escalation agreement with Russia is an obvious weakness. It plays into Russia’s hands – allowing it to kill more, wage war for longer, have even less respect for America, and inflict even greater losses and damage on the world.

Ukraine is ready to take symmetrical de-escalatory steps, and the American team knows our position. Our strikes on Russian oil refineries and other oil facilities are a response to Russia’s years-long campaign of terror against Ukraine’s energy sector. Ukraine will not set Russian oil refineries on fire if Russia does not destroy our energy infrastructure. This is the kind of agreement we are proposing to America, and we believe the United States has enough power to achieve such a compromise.

Gifts to Putin will not bring peace or any benefit to the civilized world. Russia will “repay” the diesel with further terror and perfidy. Allowing Russia to sell petroleum products is an investment in a war that must be ended, not prolonged. What is needed is real de-escalation with Russia on a reciprocal basis.

We count on America’s fair support for our defense of life, for our defense of people in Ukraine – and on the United States having a correspondingly strong conversation with Russia. A strong one, not a weak one.

[Rep. Don Bacon 🇺🇸✈️🏍️⭐️🎖️ @RepDonBacon]

We need lower diesel prices for American farmers, ranchers and consumers, but buying Russian fuel is the wrong answer. Ukraine has been striking Russian refineries because they fuel and finance Putin’s illegal invasion. Putin is looking for a way to get the United States to pressure Ukraine to stop striking those refineries. I hope Ukraine continues to destroy Russia’s diesel production capacity. Congress overwhelmingly passed the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia Act, and President Trump signed it into law. Now is the time to use those sanctions to squeeze Putin’s war machine, not reward a dictator by putting more money in his hands while he continues targeting and killing Ukrainian civilians.

[Rep. Don Bacon 🇺🇸✈️🏍️⭐️🎖️ @RepDonBacon]

70% of Americans support Ukraine. Propping up Putin’s war economy is morally wrong as he uses that money to bomb cities. The President’s policies towards Russia and Ukraine are failures. We need moral clarity not moral ambiguity.

[Ukraine Battle Map @ukraine_map]

As a reward for murdering 78 civilians in two days, Trump has now removed sanctions from Russia until April 2027, which prevented Russia from selling diesel to the US 🇺🇸

The most pro-Russian President in US history decided to strengthen Russia so they can kill more Ukrainians 🇺🇦

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

We went from sanctioning Russian oil to buying it in three weeks.

Instead of ending his disastrous war in Iran, Trump is now funding Russia's war in Ukraine.

We used to hold dictators and autocrats accountable.

Now our president negotiated a deal to fund Putin's unjust war.

[AncientPriest @AncientPriest]

Mulțumim, @NicusorDanRO și PSD.

Unul a mimat rolul de mediator în timp ce guvernarea care făcea reforme rămânea fără susținere. Ceilalți au dat jos un Guvern fără să aibă o soluție reală pentru ziua de după.

În poză: viața de dinainte. 😂

Noi, între timp, stăm calmi. E doar cursul euro. Ce-ar putea merge prost?

PS: Tâmpitul ăsta nu dizolvă parlamentul, pentru i-au spus instituțiilor financiare: NU ANTICIPATE. 🤣

[Raluca @e_raluca]

Zău? Când ai dat jos guvernul Bolojan cu mâna PSD & AUR, nu te-au interesat serviciile publice și starea finanțelor, când ai stat o vară întreaga fără să nominalizezi un premier, iar nu te-au interesat finanțele. Te interesează, brusc, acum și suspenzi democrația ca să fie cum vrei tu. Mai ai și tupeul să vorbești despre consens. Consens a fost când l-ai nominalizat pe Veștea peste capul PNL, ca să rupi partidul și să scapi de Bolojan? Iliescu a fost decent comparativ cu tine. Măcar el n-a spus niciodată că e altceva decât era.

[Emergency Turtle @ERTurtleDevil]

Tovarășul Rogobete ne spune că dacă ai lucrat intr-un ONG și ai participat la construcția unui spital, nu înseamnă că ești potrivit pentru funcția de ministru. Ceea ce e adevărat.
De fapt, trebuie să faci juma’ de rezidențiat, să-l pupi pe dom’ profesor, să te proptească unii secretar de stat și abia atunci ești bun de ministru.

[Daractenus @Daractenus]

The Financial Times has independently corroborated Kimberly Guilfoyle’s statement that the US was behind the collapse of the Romanian government of PM Bolojan over its refusal to buy US gas at above market prices: "We can do that to any country we want. We can do that here too."

[El Lunes @Ellunes]

So, România, prin Grindeanu și Ivan, ar fi promis (ferm!!!) că va cumpăra gaze la preț dublu, timp de 20 de ani, cu costuri suplimentare de aproape 1 miliard de euro pe an. Adică aproape 20 miliarde de euro cadou.

Bine, la cât de bogați sunt românii, e un mizilic. Ne permitem să aruncăm uite așa cu banii.

Numai că Bolojan a zis pas, ca contabilul. Așa e când n-ai anvergură filosofică, ca Grindeanu, Ivan sau Manda.

Nu știu cum să zic, dar ideea asta care tot circulă, că PSD-ul ar trebui salvat, nu mi se pare foarte bună.
