Trump strikes deal with Putin for Russian diesel
Original: Trump strikes deal with Putin for Russian diesel in sharp reversal of U.S. policy ahead of midterms
President Trump has reached a deal with Vladimir Putin to import Russian diesel, a sharp reversal of long-standing U.S. policy of isolating Russian energy exports. The agreement comes just ahead of the midterm elections, and is drawing attention for its potential impact on fuel prices, sanctions policy and the political debate in Washington.
Why now: A major policy reversal on Russian energy weeks before the U.S. midterms is highly politically charged.
