MOSCOW, March 19 (Bernama-Anadolu) -- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Tuesday that he will supports a 30-day ceasefire on energy infrastructure announced earlier in the day by Russian President Vladimir Putin and United States (US) President Donald Trump following their phone call, Anadolu Ajansi (AA) reported.
"We have always maintained the position of not attacking the energy sector with any weapons," said Zelenskyy, speaking at a news conference in Kyiv.
He also confirmed another war prisoner exchange, with 175 servicemen to be exchanged from each side, saying he was briefed on the matter by the Ukrainian intelligence services.
He said he had not yet had any contact with Trump after his conversation with Putin and expressed hope that the US leader would call him to inform about the results.
Earlier in the day, Putin and Trump discussed normalising bilateral ties, prospects for settling the Ukraine conflict, and the situation in the Middle East in a two-and-a-half hour phone call.
