‘Let’s Sign a Diesel Deal’: Zelensky Challenges Trump

President Volodymyr Zelensky proposed that Donald Trump sign a “diesel deal” with Ukraine, arguing that Russian supplies are too small to influence global prices. Kyiv would suspend attacks on Russian oil infrastructure in exchange for guaranteed protection of Ukraine’s electricity system. Zelensky also warned that Russia’s Black Sea blockade could trigger food shortages in Africa, Asia and the Middle East.
