Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin held a phone call on October 9. Trump described the talks as successful and said he had reached an agreement on Russian diesel fuel supplies.
“I have just concluded a highly successful discussion with President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, wherein it was agreed that Russia will immediately supply over 300,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel to the American and Global Marketplace, another 500,000 Tons during the month of November, and 1,000,000 Tons immediately thereafter. Additionally, based on the condition of their Diesel Refineries, Russia will then deliver, within a short period of time, 3,000,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel,” Trump wrote on the social network Truth Social.
Trump said diesel prices in the US would fall thanks to the agreement with Russia and US control over the Strait of Hormuz. He also added that Iran would not have nuclear weapons.
Earlier, Trump accused Ukraine, which has been striking Russian oil refineries, of driving up diesel fuel prices.
