Trump discusses Ukrainian Armed Forces' attacks on Russian oil facilities

US President Donald Trump said that he is discussing the situation with attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on Russian oil facilities.

Trump says the attacks are causing big problems but are slowing down.

WASHINGTON, October 5 - RIA Novosti. US President Donald Trump said that he is discussing the situation with attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on Russian oil facilities, which, according to him, create big problems.

"We're talking about it. I think they're slowing down. They're causing a lot of problems," Trump told reporters.

This is how he responded to a request for comment in follow-up to his post on the Truth Social social network. The US President did not specify with whom and what discussions he was having.

Earlier, Trump wrote on the social network Truth Social that the rise in fuel prices in the United States was caused not by the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, but by Kyiv’s attacks on Russian oil refineries and the closure of refineries in a number of American states.

Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said on October 2 that the situation with attacks by enemy UAVs on Russian oil refineries remains quite tense, but the damage from Ukrainian Armed Forces drone attacks on factories has become lower due to a lot of work being done to strengthen their protection.

Press Secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov said on Monday that Ukraine must pay for attacks on Russian peaceful economic targets, and the Russian Armed Forces are now engaged in retaliation for the actions of the Kyiv regime.
