Claims Trump works with Putin to lower fuel prices

Original: Trump kooperiert mit Putin um mindestens bis zu den Midterms den Spritpreis zu senken und gleichzeitig schwächt er inter

Commentators are asserting that Donald Trump is cooperating with Vladimir Putin to keep fuel prices low at least until the US midterms, while simultaneously weakening international law. The same argument calls on the EU to move faster in protecting democracy and to stop drifting toward a surveillance state. The claim of an oil deal between Washington and Moscow is unconfirmed, but the discussion ties energy prices to US domestic politics and European security.

Why now: Accusations of a Trump-Putin arrangement on oil prices ahead of the US midterms are fueling debate about Western unity and EU policy.
