Trump, Putin Strike Russian Diesel Supply Deal

President Donald Trump announced an agreement with Vladimir Putin for Russian diesel supplies to the US and global markets, with over 300,000 tonnes immediately and 500,000 tonnes in November, potentially reaching 4.8 million tonnes. The US Treasury issued a six-month licence authorising the imports, reversing sanctions policy. Analysts doubt sustained relief, as the volumes cover less than ten days of US demand.
