The announcement comes against a backdrop of tension between Ukraine and Russia, with Ukrainian attacks on Russian energy infrastructure indirectly mentioned by Trump.
The president of the United States, Donald Trump, announced this Friday a "transcendental" agreement with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, for Russia to "immediately" supply more than 300,000 tons of diesel fuel to the American and global markets.
The agreement will continue with the supply of "another 500,000 tons during the month of November and 1,000,000 tons immediately after," the president of the United States announced on his social networks.
Depending on the state of the Russian refineries, Trump explained in a veiled reference to the Ukrainian attacks on Moscow's energy infrastructure, the US president expects Russia to deliver "in a short period of time" three million tons of diesel fuel.
Trump has assured that, amid the "total control" that his country exercises over the Strait of Hormuz (actually blocked by Iran, while Washington exercises control of the surrounding area), diesel prices "will fall rapidly and in record numbers for Americans and for the world."
