The Atlantic reports that the US is seeking an energy truce between Ukraine and Russia, aiming to prevent strikes on energy infrastructure. The potential agreement would obligate both sides to refrain from attacking power plants, refineries, and similar facilities.

The report suggests this energy truce aligns with US interests, as former President Trump believes Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries contribute to high diesel prices in the US. The US reportedly plans to organize a trilateral meeting in Abu Dhabi in October.
