Ukraine Reportedly Bombs Russian Oil Terminal, Which is Part of Deal to Lower Price of Diesel to the US
On Friday, President Trump announced that the price of diesel was coming down fast after he reached a deal with Ukraine.
I have just concluded a highly successful discussion with President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, wherein it was agreed that Russia will immediately supply over 300,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel to the American and Global Marketplace, another 500,000 Tons during the month of November, and 1,000,000 Tons immediately thereafter. Additionally, based on the condition of their Diesel Refineries, Russia will then deliver, within a short period of time, 3,000,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel. Between our TOTAL CONTROL of the Strait of Hormuz, and this great announcement on Russian Energy, Diesel Prices for Americans and, indeed, the World, will be COMING DOWN, IN RECORD NUMBERS, AND FAST! Lower prices for Americans, especially our Great Farmers, Ranchers, and Truckers, is my Greatest Priority. This is a very big and important announcement. Additionally, it must be understood, that Iran will not have a Nuclear Weapon! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP
Overnight, a massive Russian terminal is bombed by Ukraine. The following was reported:
BREAKING: Ukraine has just struck the NZNP Rostovsky oil products export terminal in Rostov-on-Don and set it ablaze, hours after the US-Russia diesel deal and Trump lifting sanctions on Russian fuel exports.
This is a products export terminal, exactly where the diesel would leave Russia under the deal.
Ukrainian military sources said earlier today that the Trump administration’s attempt to use Russian diesel to lower US prices before the midterms “will bear no fruit.”
