Seven US senators from both parties demand Trump reverse Russian diesel decision
Seven US senators — three Democrats and four Republicans — issued a joint statement on October 11 calling on President Trump to reverse his decision to allow imports of Russian diesel fuel. The senators argued the move directly contradicts a 2022 law banning Russian energy imports and said the United States should not give Putin a financial lifeline while Russia continues its war against Ukraine.
