Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky criticized the US-Russia diesel deal as inappropriate Friday, warning at a European Council press conference that he was certain a gas agreement would follow.
Zelensky argued that concessions on Russian diesel risk opening the door to further energy deals and sanctions relief. He said such arrangements must be opposed, asking who would challenge them if he didn't.
The remarks follow a US-Russia agreement on Russian diesel supplies that includes relief from US sanctions. Trump has also pressed Ukraine to halt attacks on Russian oil infrastructure, linking those strikes to higher US energy prices.
