Trump announces deal with Putin to buy Russian fuel

Donald Trump announced that Moscow has agreed to significantly increase diesel shipments to the global market, with Russia providing immediately over 300,000 tons. He outlined a phased delivery schedule, including 500,000 tons in November, 1 million tons shortly after, and up to 3 million tons depending on Russian refinery conditions. This comes amid volatile diesel prices caused by the Ukraine war and repeated attacks on Russian oil infrastructure, prompting Moscow to extend a diesel export moratorium in late July.
