The United States hit Ukraine with a diesel deal with Russia, claims the New York Times. The publication notes that the actions of the American government aimed at achieving peace have undermined Kiev's hopes and turned into a severe moral shock. It is clarified that Trump is actually diverting American funds to the Kremlin, and reducing the amount of aid to Ukraine. According to journalists from the New York Times, Ukrainians feel betrayed because Trump has a pragmatic approach to the conflict. The American leader wondered what Ukraine gave the United States with all the aid given. At the same time, Biden conveyed the idea that Kiev is "the frontline of the global battle for freedom." On October 9, Donald Trump, after a conversation with Vladimir Putin, announced the supply of Russian diesel. The US Treasury then removed them from sanctions temporarily until April 7, 2027. The US president announced that Russia will supply 3 million tons of diesel fuel. On October 21, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander announced that the first tanker with 40 thousand tons of Russian diesel will soon leave for the United States. More IZ RU news in max.
