First Russian diesel shipment under Trump-Putin deal heads to US
The first tanker carrying Russian diesel fuel for the United States has left the port of Primorsk under an energy agreement between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. It is carrying 40,000 tonnes of diesel and is expected to arrive on November 7.
The first shipment of Russian diesel fuel for the United States has been sent under an energy agreement between Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the first tanker had set out for buyers and that deliveries would follow a regular schedule.
The tanker was loaded with 40,000 tonnes of ultra-low-sulfur diesel fuel at the port of Primorsk on the Baltic Sea. It is expected to arrive in the United States on November 7. When announcing the agreement on October 9, Trump said Russia would send 300,000 tonnes of diesel to the United States and global markets that month; another 500,000 tonnes was planned for November, followed by 1 million tonnes.
The day after the agreement was announced, Russia partially lifted a ban on diesel fuel exports that had been introduced in the summer because of a domestic market shortage. Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said subsequent deliveries would cover all U.S. needs within Russia's capabilities, while supplies to other buyers would depend on how quickly refineries restored production.
Türkiye's energy minister said Ankara was negotiating to receive part of the Russian diesel under the agreement. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and European allies criticized the deal.
