  "account": "Since days, the threat of the United States withholding American diesel from Europe has loomed, if those countries do not take action against the high prices. Now, the world's major industrial states are responding. Energy is expensive, with diesel fuel particularly in demand. Last week, American President Donald Trump threatened France and Germany multiple times, stating that the US would no longer supply them with diesel fuel unless they released reserves. This issue sparked a flurry of activity within the EU, as nearly half of all imported diesel comes from the United States. The G7 group of nations reacted to the political tensions on Friday evening, announcing that its member countries plan to release 100 million barrels of fuel, including diesel. According to a statement from the group, the action is set to begin immediately and last for four months, with a particular focus on diesel at the outset. The goal is to stabilize energy markets. Meanwhile, the G7 nations have agreed to halt export restrictions in order to avoid further aggravating the strained energy market situation. The statement also mentions that the concerns of the public over high energy prices will continue to be the highest political priority.",
