US Energy Secretary Bessent Asks European Partners to Increase Diesel Supply

Bessent shared the issue on the social media platform account of US-based company X.

Stating that the USA, under the leadership of US President Donald Trump, has fulfilled its commitments to help stabilize global energy markets, Bessent said, "Our European partners should accelerate the process of fulfilling their current commitments and immediately introduce additional supply to the market to eliminate ongoing disruptions." he said.

Bessent emphasized that American farmers, truckers and businesses should not be forced to bear the burden of the global diesel shortage.

Arguing that the USA is doing its part, Bessent said, "We expect our allies to fulfill their commitments." made his assessment.

On the other hand, US President Donald Trump, in his statement to the press in Texas, where he went for a rally, stated that they may ask European countries to put their diesel stocks on the market.
