The last tanker carrying Russian diesel turned away from the American coast. Bloomberg.
Hagui Panandez left Primorsk at the end of October, but about 740 km from New York, he changed his destination to "awaiting orders" and began to leave US shores. Two other tankers failed to reach the US either: one stopped in Egypt and the other headed to Brazil.
American buyers fear secondary sanctions, despite the fact that the country's diesel stockpiles fell below 100 million barrels for the first time in 20 years. The Kremlin has stated that Russian fuel will still find buyers.
