Russia to send first diesel tanker to the US amid Trump deal
Russia will send on Thursday its first diesel tanker to the US to an undisclosed port.
In Oslo, US envoy Steve Witkoff urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to negotiate a deal with Russia, just a day after Zelenskyy met with Norwegian Defense Minister Tore Sandvik. Zelenskyy discussed the possibility of additional NASAMS air defense systems during both meetings. NASAMS, produced by Norwegian firm Kongsberg, utilizes the American-built AIM-120 AMRAAM missile, which Ukraine relies on to neutralize Russian ballistic and hypersonic missiles.
Norway is also contributing to the FREYJA missile-defense project, aiming to test the system by year-end. Meanwhile, Zelenskyy spoke about the need for improved satellite communications, as Starlink's service limitations impacted Ukrainian drone operations.
