EconomyRussia says first diesel shipment to US will depart October 22
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said the first shipment of Russian diesel to the United States is scheduled for October 22, with the contract in its final stage and further batches expected. He said Russia could restore diesel export volumes fully by the end of 2026. A temporary US license allows Russian diesel to reach global markets despite US sanctions. Volodymyr Zelensky called the deal an “investment in the war.”
