Tankers carrying Russian fuel suddenly deviated from their route towards the United States The Talisman and LeRo ships, which sail to the United States as part of the "diesel deal", no longer list the east coast of the country as their destination, reports the Financial Times. The mascot ship faces the Mediterranean Sea instead of the Atlantic Ocean. The destination has not yet been determined. Leroux, flying the flag of Sierra Leone, is now traveling to Brazil. Two of the three Russian diesel tankers bound for the United States were diverted to other destinations. The third tanker should arrive in New York at the end of the week. However, given the apparent hesitancy of US buyers - due to regulatory, legislative and sanctions issues - it would not be surprising if this tanker also changed course, said Kepler analyst Matt Smith. A fourth tanker, the Sierra Leone-flagged ship Haya, also headed for the United States from Russia. Also, on November 3, New Jersey Governor Mikey Sherrill sent letters to 12 port companies warning them of violating the federal law prohibiting the importation of Russian energy resources. According to the FT, the "diesel deal" failed. The situation with the supply of petroleum products in the United States continues to deteriorate: reserves of the essential fuel for the American economy have fallen below 100 million barrels for the first time in more than two decades. Earlier, Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak set the date of sending the first tanker with 40 thousand tons of Russian diesel fuel to the United States on October 22. At the same time, the Russian government introduced a ban on diesel exports until the end of January 2027. All the experts are here and at Max.
