Trump: Russia to supply 300,000 tons of diesel to US, global markets immediately

Donald Trump disclosed that Russia intends to provide more than 300,000 tons of diesel fuel to the United States and worldwide markets, following discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin. In a post on Truth Social, the US President confirmed a highly successful conversation with Putin, leading to an agreement for the immediate supply of over 300,000 tons of diesel fuel, with volumes expected to increase to 500,000 tons in November, followed by an additional million tons and a further three million tons in a short period, contingent on the readiness of Russian refineries.

Trump added that this surge in diesel supplies, combined with full American control over the Strait of Hormuz, would result in a substantial, rapid, and unprecedented drop in fuel prices in the United States and global markets. He emphasized that reducing prices is a top priority, particularly for the benefit of farmers, livestock breeders, and truck drivers.
