What the coverage shows

The coverage converges on Trump’s claim of an “energy ceasefire” and on Zelenskyy’s mixed response, with several outlets saying he was surprised or awaiting details and others saying he would back it if Russia does. Most outlets also tie the announcement to Trump’s diesel deal with Russia and to criticism from Ukraine, while Axios, Reuters and NBC foreground Trump’s broader confrontation with Zelenskyy and his calls for new leadership. A few outlets add extra angles: the Washington Post and The Hill highlight U.S. political backlash, and South China Morning Post uniquely says Russian strikes hit power plants after the claim.
