US still sourcing diesel from Russia despite sanctions
Original: 🟠 UPDATE US Sourcing Diesel from Russia Despite Sanctions Zelenskyy explicitly links Russian strikes to the diesel deal,
Zelenskyy has directly linked Russian strikes on Ukraine to the reported purchase of Russian diesel by the United States, describing the attacks as Moscow's 'thanks' for the deal. The allegation that US imports of Russian fuel continue despite sanctions is drawing criticism, while European leaders have reiterated their support for Kyiv amid the fallout.
Why now: The claim that the US is buying Russian diesel while sanctions remain in place, combined with Zelenskyy's pointed remarks, is a striking diplomacy story drawing wide attention.
