  "summary": "US President Donald Trump has allowed Russian diesel supplies to be sold globally, sparking concerns about the move's compatibility with a recent law empowering him to impose tariffs on major purchasers of Russian oil and gas. The agreement, which comes just three weeks after Trump signed the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026, has drawn criticism from various quarters, including Democrats, Republicans, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who argue that it weakens the pressure on Russia and funds the Kremlin's war efforts.",
