The Ukrainians have been quite clear also that they would not completely halt strikes on Russian refineries until Russia stopped its attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure. Kyiv has taken a more cautious approach to refinery strikes since Trump's threats and his unilateral ceasefire, but it has not been a policy to halt them through the elections. The position is to strike in retaliation for Russia's energy strikes and particularly heinous attacks on civilians, such as those yesterday in Dnipro and Chernihiv.
