  "summary": "US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin had a phone call, after which Trump said Russia agreed to supply diesel to US and global markets to lower fuel prices. According to the Kremlin, Trump welcomed Russia's involvement in efforts to reach a settlement over Iran. Putin also spoke with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, saying Moscow was ready to help end the war.\n\nUkrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy criticized Trump's decision to allow Russia to supply diesel, warning it could help Moscow fund its war against Ukraine. Zelenskyy called the agreement a \"weak decision\" and said it was unfair to Ukraine. He expressed concern that Ukraine's delegation could be sidelined while Washington and Moscow discuss possible arrangements.\n\nTrump said Russia would supply over 300,000 metric tons of diesel to US and global markets, equal to about 2.25 million barrels of fuel, according to the Japan Times. Diesel prices fell after the announcement, but analysts said the deal may not be enough to keep them down.",
