Zelensky says 'de-escalation' with Russia helps to build trust in talks

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Monday that a recent "de-escalation" with Russia -- an apparent reference to a brief ceasefire for energy facilities -- was helping to build trust in negotiations.

"The de-escalation measures that went into effect on the night of last Thursday to Friday are helping to build public trust in the negotiation process and its possible outcome," the president said on social media.
