Jiri Jicha stated that seven American senators from both parties, led by Jeanne Shaheen, accused Trump of violating a 2022 law that bans the import of Russian energy by allowing the import of Russian diesel into the USA. According to them, the senators claimed that the administration did not consult Congress nor provided the legally required justification. They also warned that the imports could help finance the Russian war against Ukraine and demanded that the administration immediately reverse its decision. #Trump #Rusko #Energie (translated)

The candidate of the Civic Coalition, senator Monika Piątkowska, turned out to be too little known in Krakow, which contributed to her defeat in the second round of the presidential elections against Łukasz Gibała, who received 62.12% of the votes. #Kraków #wybory #MonikaPiątkowska (translated)

Regina Laska wrote that Donald Trump announced an immediate energy ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine and stated that both sides had agreed. According to her, Volodymyr Zelensky initially had no knowledge of this. Later, he said the report was new to him, but Ukraine was ready to cease attacks on Russian energy facilities, provided that Russia would no longer attack Ukrainian power plants. Laska wrote that there was no initial confirmation from the Kremlin, and Russian attacks continued. According to Ukrainian sources, among others, power plants in Kyiv and Kharkiv were hit. She also referred to Trump's earlier claim from September 14 that both sides had agreed to spare energy facilities; however, a sustainable ceasefire did not emerge from that. The author placed the announcement within a series of Trump's statements: on Friday, he announced a diesel deal with Putin and a US waiver for Russian diesel deliveries; on Saturday, he said Ukraine needed a new president; and on Sunday, he declared a ceasefire, to which this president allegedly agreed. Laska described this as contradictory since Zelensky had simultaneously been portrayed by Trump as a potential negotiating partner, even though he was unaware of the agreement. Furthermore, Laska wrote that seven US senators - four Republicans and three Democrats - legally challenged Trump's diesel deal with Putin. They accused the government of not involving Congress as required and demanded the withdrawal of the deal. While the US Treasury had issued a license, its sufficient legal basis was disputed. In a satirical scene, Laska imagined Trump reacting by putting down his phone, splattering a freshly painted wall while drinking, and possibly firing the painter afterward. #Trump #Ukraine #Russland (translated)
