Discounted Russian diesel finds no buyers in the US At least three tankers carrying Russian fuel are leaving for the US after the Trump administration granted a temporary exemption from sanctions restrictions on October 16. However, at the time of loading, none of the tankers confirmed buyers. Democrats say the exemption violates sanctions laws and warn the companies could face criminal penalties and subsequent investigations. According to reports, US companies are resisting accepting these shipments, despite significant discounts. Analysts say the tankers could eventually change course and head for Brazil.
