Trump Urges Ukraine to Halt Attacks on Russian Oil Refineries Amid Soaring Fuel Prices

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, Axios reported that United States President Donald Trump, during a phone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, requested that Ukraine halt its attacks on Russian oil refineries. The term ‘diesel fuel’ was reportedly repeated multiple times during the discussion.

Axios claims these attacks have contributed to an increase in global diesel fuel prices. This assertion comes amidst concerns that U.S. actions against Iran and disruptions to energy transfer routes through the Strait of Hormuz have led to a significant surge in global fuel costs. The average price of diesel fuel in the United States has reached a new record, surpassing $6.48 per gallon.
