WASHINGTON — President Trump announced Friday that the US will buy large amounts of Russian diesel to address surging fuel costs — making a major foreign-policy pivot to ease costs just before the midterm elections. “I have just concluded a highly successful discussion with President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, wherein it was agreed that Russia will immediately supply over 300,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel to the American and Global Marketplace, another 500,000 Tons during the month of November, and 1,000,000 Tons immediately thereafter,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. A sticker of President Donald Trump saying “I Did That” referring to the price of diesel is seen at a Mobil gas station, Thursday, October 8, 2026, in Coral Springs, Florida.
