Donald Trump announced on Friday that Russia would immediately release 300,000 tonnes of diesel, with more shipments to follow. The diesel deal occurs even though he recently enacted legislation that permits new US sanctions and tariffs on countries importing Russian oil. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called the deal “an investment in a war that must be ended.”
