This bold move could shift the balance in Europe’s security crisis, ensuring these facilities remain untouched by Russian aggression.
The stakes are high, as Trump and Zelensky target critical energy infrastructures amid peace negotiations.
The White House confirmed that discussions with Ukraine have moved beyond a proposed minerals deal, pivoting towards securing U.S. stakes in their nuclear power facilities.
According to the White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, this decision is part of Trump’s broader plan to ensure “American ownership of those plants would be the best protection for that infrastructure” according to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz.
The Zaporizhzhia power plant, a significant focal point, has been under Russian control, and its future is crucial for Ukraine.
The dialogue between Trump and President Zelensky highlighted the need for a collaborative effort to safeguard Ukraine’s energy security.
Trump suggested that American expertise in utilities would significantly bolster the management and protection of Ukraine’s power plants.
Zelensky agreed, stating, “We believe that together with America, with President Trump, and under American leadership, lasting peace can be achieved this year.”
This strong partnership opens doors for further discussions on aid and protection, although unused military aid was not explicitly addressed in their call.
“President Trump also discussed Ukraine’s electrical supply and nuclear power plants. He said that the United States could be very helpful in running those plants with its electricity and utility expertise,” stated Secretary of State Marco Rubio and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, cited by Newsweek.
Throughout their talks, Trump reiterated the importance of peace.
The call also covered the need for a ceasefire, a point of agreement with Putin even though a complete cessation of attacks wasn’t reached.
Efforts to cease hostilities in key areas like the Black Sea are in full motion, while shared intelligence between U.S. and Ukraine continues to foster trust and strategy enhancements.
In a gesture of goodwill, 175 prisoners were exchanged between Ukraine and Russia, illustrating a delicate diplomatic balance.
Meanwhile, Trump aims to locate additional air defense methods to support Ukraine, a move requested by Zelensky.
This includes efforts to retrieve missing children, an urgent humanitarian aspect of their ongoing conflict.
“We have moved beyond the economic mineral deal,” Leavitt said, cited by The New York Post.
Further peace talks are anticipated to occur in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Such strategies of deterring Russian aggression underscore Trump’s ongoing commitment to restoring peace and supporting Ukraine’s sovereignty.
Despite opposition and skepticism, the strategic engagement between the U.S. and Ukraine signals a concerted effort to safeguard European energy security and promote a lasting peace.
