Russia and the U.S. managed to quickly agree on a list of objects subject to a temporary moratorium on attacks on the energy system during talks in Riyadh on March 25.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov made this known on Wednesday.
“It is thanks to these contacts that we were able to quickly agree on a list of Russian and Ukrainian facilities that fall under the temporary moratorium on attacks on the energy system,” Peskov said.
The moratorium on strikes on Russian and Ukrainian energy systems must be respected, the official said.
He added that it was a good step forward and was achieved through dialogue between Moscow and Washington.
“Russian President Vladimir Putin’s order regarding the moratorium is in effect and is being implemented by our armed forces,” Peskov said.
At the same time, Ukraine’s attempts to strike Russian energy facilities were well known, the official said, adding that Kyiv has repeatedly demonstrated its inability to negotiate.
