**Trump. Thanks to his many foolish actions, created the massive global diesel shortage. I’ll mention 2 very short sighted and unnecessary actions. Sanctioning Russia. Attacking Iran. Now there are global diesel shortages. The price of diesel has skyrocketed and is contributing to inflationary pressures every where.**

**I’ll share a few of the recent news articles**

> Moscow to “immediately release” 300,00 tonnes of diesel into the global market, followed by 500,000 tonnes in November and another million afterwards.

**Trump is claiming he’s allowing this, actually, `he’s desperate for this.`**

**Meanwhile**…

**That’s true.**

> **Russian president reaffirms Moscow’s readiness to supply oil and petroleum products following phone call with Trump**
> 
> ***“In discussing the state of the global energy sector, the Russian side reaffirmed its readiness to supply oil and petroleum products to the US and global markets. I am confident that this will have a positive impact on the global economy as a whole,”*** Putin said.

**Hopefully he’s correct? If Russia can provide enough fuel to to make an impact**

##### [Washington grants temporary sanctions relief for Russian diesel](https://shafaq.com/en/Economy/Washington-grants-temporary-sanctions-relief-for-Russian-diesel)

> **The US Treasury Department on Friday authorized Russian diesel exports to global markets under a temporary sanctions exemption, following a telephone conversation between President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin on measures to ease energy prices.**
> 
> **At Trump’s direction, the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) issued a temporary general license allowing Russian diesel to enter international markets immediately.**
> 
> **`Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy criticized the sanctions relief, warning that easing pressure on Moscow without commitments to reduce hostilities would strengthen its ability to continue the war against Ukraine.`**
> 
> ***`“Allowing Russia to sell petroleum products is an investment in a war that must be ended, not prolonged,”`*** **Zelenskyy argued, urging Washington to make the exemption conditional on reciprocal measures to halt attacks on energy infrastructure.**

**This deal with Russia comes after a G-7 emergency diesel reserves release**
