Ukrainian Foreign Minister Welcomes US Efforts to Achieve "Energy Ceasefire"

Now15 September 2026 at 12:46

Ukraine's Foreign Minister welcomed the United States' efforts to achieve an "energy ceasefire" between Russia and Ukraine. This statement comes in the context of international negotiations to try to reduce hostilities between the two countries.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky sets as a condition for the suspension of attacks on Russia the cessation of the Russian offensive against Ukrainian energy infrastructure. This demand reflects the critical importance that energy infrastructure has assumed in the conflict.

The proposed energy ceasefire would allow the protection of essential civilian facilities on both sides, potentially contributing to a significant reduction in fighting and to creating favorable conditions for broader negotiations.

Why this matters

Readers in the region closely follow the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, and any progress in ceasefire negotiations can directly affect regional security and stability. This "energy ceasefire" represents a potential resolution pathway that could reduce attacks on civilian infrastructure.

International artists can gain space in major transformation of Miami airport

Miami-Dade County has opened an international call to select visual artists who may develop public art works at Miami International Airport (MIA), with projects ranging from USD $100 thousand to $500 thousand or more.

The expectation is to select between 30 and 40 professional artists, local, national, and international, who may compete for specific opportunities over at least two years. In the first phase, it is not necessary to submit specific proposals — only professional qualifications, such as images of previous works and a resume. Registration is free and closes on September 21, 2026. Selected artists will later receive compensation to develop specific proposals and may have travel expenses covered.
