Der Krieg in der Ukraine hat zu globalen Energiepreisanstiegen geführt, insbesondere bei Diesel. Beide Seiten zielen auf Energieinfrastruktur, um die Wirtschaft des Gegners zu schwächen.
Die Öl- und Energiepreiskrise brachte am Sonntag einen unerwarteten Gewinner hervor. Der ukrainische Präsident Wolodymyr Selenskyj hatte seinen US-Kollegen Donald Trump an der Strippe. Trump versuchte in dem Telefonat, Selenskyj von Angriffen auf russische Raffinerien abzubringen, damit die Knappheit nicht die Spritpreise weiter in die Höhe treibt.

Selenskyj teilt nach dem Telefonat mit Trump kühl mit: Ein »wichtiges Gespräch« sei das gewesen, und ein baldiges Treffen mit Trump »könnte« viel ändern.
