Why It Matters
Russia and the United States have agreed on diesel supplies, a rare example of economic interaction amid political differences.
Russia and the United States, having agreed on diesel supplies, have taken a serious step towards each other. This was stated by Ambassador at Large of the Russian Foreign Ministry Rodion Miroshnik. He was quoted by Izvestia.
According to him, what happened means that relations between Russia and the United States can develop on other topics in which there is no main stupor in the form of the Ukrainian conflict. He emphasized that Moscow is interested in developing economic cooperation with Washington. The diesel deal concerns limited volumes, but it provided an opportunity to move a separate economic issue beyond the Ukrainian crisis.
According to the head of the State Duma Committee on the Financial Market, Anatoly Aksakov, Russian diesel will definitely be delivered to the United States during October. However, he emphasized that the domestic market should not be allowed to be exposed here.
Later, information appeared that the first batch of Russian diesel fuel went to the United States.
