Zelenskyy: Putin seeks to cause a blackout across all of Ukraine
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said Russian President Vladimir Putin is trying to bring about a nationwide power outage in Ukraine. The source text provides only the headline of this statement.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that Russian President Vladimir Putin is trying to cause a Ukraine-wide electricity outage, known as a blackout. The claim was reported by Politico Europe, and its headline is the only description of the statement available.
The source material does not say when or where Zelenskyy made the remark, what evidence it rests on, or which attacks on energy infrastructure may have occurred. Those details are therefore left out.
Wider context
The statement comes while Russia's war in Ukraine continues. A related note on the same Politico page says EU leaders are calling for new measures against Moscow while Washington eases off, exposing a widening divide over how to end the war.
