US President Donald Trump announced an agreement for Russia to supply diesel to global markets, easing sanctions to lower energy costs ahead of US midterm elections.
Moscow will supply over 300,000 tons of diesel immediately, followed by 500,000 tons in November and one million tons thereafter, backed by a temporary US Treasury license.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky criticized the move as unworthy and weak, while US and Ukrainian negotiators met in Miami to discuss de-escalation.
