Why It Matters

The rise in diesel fuel prices in the United States is due to a number of factors, including geopolitical events and domestic energy policies.

Former President Joe Biden and Ukraine are to blame for high diesel prices in the United States. This was pointed out by the country's Energy Minister Chris Wright, Interfax reports.

“Many factors need to be taken into account here, but the main one is Ukraine’s attacks on Russian oil refining capacities,” he noted.

The minister identified the closure of a number of American oil refineries by Joe Biden as another reason for the rise in prices. All these actions led to the fact that the market was faced with insufficient supply, Wright concluded.
