What happened

Well supportedReported by 14 independent outlets

President Donald Trump announced a deal to purchase diesel from Russia to supply the American and global marketplace. Following this announcement, oil prices dipped below $104 per barrel. Senator Martin Heinrich denounced the plan, stating that the purchase would not impact American prices and that refining capacity issues related to the Middle East war were the cause of high costs.
