Ukraine has made proposals to U.S. on gas infrastructure, nuclear generation – Zelensky

According to Ukrinform, President Volodymyr Zelensky announced this in his nightly video address published on the presidential website.

Zelensky said that there should be zero Russian energy in Europe, and the signals from America are clear now – "they are ready to supply Europe with as much gas and oil as needed to replace Russian supplies."

"Our region has the necessary infrastructure and potential to contribute to Europe's energy independence way more. We have made proposals to the U.S. regarding gas infrastructure, nuclear power generation, and several other projects. We are currently working on the details," he said.

He added that he had received reports on negotiations related to gas supply and energy support for Ukraine.

"There are significant results both in the United States and with Slovakia. We also share a common vision on energy with our other partners," Zelensky said.

According to him, "almost every day now, we are communicating with leaders to ensure that we have a common position, all of us in Europe, on putting pressure on Russia – the right kind of pressure."

"We will grant the aggressor no gifts and forget nothing. We clearly see: this Russia is a long-term threat. Therefore, in Europe, we need long-term cooperation and tangible results – both in the short term and with a forward-looking perspective – so that people can live," Zelensky said.

As reported earlier, Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko discussed with newly appointed U.S. Export-Import Bank President John Jovanovic potential projects in gas imports, nuclear energy, and joint uranium production.
