TREE NEWS update: US President Donald Trump said on October 13 at the White House that the United States is still sharing intelligence with Ukraine and wants the Russia-Ukraine conflict to end as soon as possible. Responding to Republican lawmakers’ complaints about US-Russia diesel trade, Trump said Russian diesel goes to the global market, not only to the US, and that the global market has long suffered from high oil prices.
Trump Says US Still Sharing Intelligence With Ukraine
Trump's remarks sit at the intersection of two markets that rarely get discussed together: wartime intelligence cooperation and refined-product flows. The diesel comment is the more market-relevant thread, framing Russian supply as a global rather than bilateral issue and implicitly pushing back on calls to restrict it. For energy and shipping desks, the open question is whether that framing softens the appetite for tighter measures on Russian refined products, or whether Congress pursues them regardless.
