Both sides [Russia and Ukraine] have a vested interest in seeing an end to the destruction of their energy infrastructure. For Moscow, it's a question of protecting revenues from its oil and gas industry, whose exports are essential to the Kremlin's coffers. And for Kyiv, preserving the power grid that has been severely damaged by repeated Russian strikes since the 2022 invasion, is essential to keep the military industry humming. It's a win-win situation, but Ukraine is still much more vulnerable than Russia on the energy front.
