Donald Trump announced a deal to import millions of tons of diesel from Russia, stating the agreement was reached with Russian President Vladimir Putin during a phone call on October 9. Under the deal, Russia will immediately supply over 300,000 tons of diesel, followed by 500,000 tons in November and 1 million tons soon after, with a total of three million tons expected soon. This announcement came as Washington temporarily eased sanctions on Russian fuel, allowing Russia to supply diesel to US and international markets.

The agreement represents a major change in US policy after years of pressure on Russia over its war against Ukraine. The move, which contrasts with previous Russian sanctions aimed at reducing Moscow's war effort revenue, was announced in the effort to lower fuel prices.
