Trump chastises Zelenskyy over Russian refinery strikes during Ireland visit
The U.S. president insisted the Russia-Ukraine war — not the U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran — was to blame for a diesel shortage.
Doonbeg, Ireland – U.S. President Donald Trump expressed strong disapproval of Ukraine's actions targeting Russian oil refineries on Sunday, during his two-day visit to the country. He pledged to lift tariffs on Irish whiskey, while downplaying concerns over the potential impact of artificial intelligence. Trump concluded his trip by awarding the Irish Open golf trophy to the winner, Shane Lowry, at his Doonbeg golf resort located on Ireland's western coastline.
The unpredictable American president insisted that Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy must take a specific action: "stop knocking out diesel fuel" refineries in Russia, due to increasing fuel shortages.
