Trump accused of blaming Zelenskyy over Iran oil crisis

Original: Trump blames Zelenskyy to cover up his own mess in Iran Fuel prices hikes stems from of # Trump 's # US -Israeli # Iran

Critics accuse Donald Trump of shifting blame onto Volodymyr Zelenskyy to distract from fallout of the US-Israeli conflict with Iran. They point to fuel price hikes driven by Iran's disruption of the Strait of Hormuz, through which a fifth of the world's oil passes, arguing Trump seeks a scapegoat for the economic damage.

Why now: Fuel price hikes linked to the Iran conflict are fuelling debate over who is responsible and Trump's attempt to deflect blame.
