US President Donald Trump has announced a deal to import Russian diesel, drawing criticism from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and European allies.
Trump said Russia would release 300,000 tonnes of diesel immediately, followed by 500,000 tonnes in November and another one million tonnes later.
The US Treasury is reportedly suspending sanctions on Russian diesel exports until April 7, while other Russian assets in American banks remain frozen.
Zelensky criticised the move, calling it an investment in a war that should be ended rather than prolonged.
