Trump responds to Russian diesel deal

    por HOMERED: Donald Trump

    President Trump is pushing back against critics of the Russian diesel deal while refineries in the Russia-Ukraine war face repeated strikes that hurt supply. The agreement releases fuel into the global market to help where prices have been high, not just for the US. He says they're releasing it to the ENTIRE WORLD and that's going to be released into the world, for the world market, because the world market suffered with high prices! Opponents would attack him for inaction if he didn't intervene on these elevated costs. Since he believes he cannot succeed against media outlets labeled as fake news, he prioritizes taking actions he considers correct instead of arguing. #DonaldTrump

    The Press. The President, has somebody told you that Russia is not just going to take this diesel money and use it to buy bombs using it to spring? The President, no, nobody has told me anything. That's a diesel deal, not for us. That's being released into the world. That's not being released to us. That's a diesel deal that's going to be released into the world, for the world market. Because the world market suffered with high prices. And when you knock out diesel refineries, that's not a great thing. But they're not releasing that to us. They're releasing it to the entire world.
