New York: (RightNow) A shipment of diesel from Russia is en route to the U.S. market. This follows an agreement between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russia.

According to shipping data, a tanker filled with Russian diesel is heading towards New York. The managing company has not confirmed the final destination.

Reports indicate that the Malta-flagged ship loaded 40,000 metric tons of diesel from a Russian port. It is expected to arrive in New York on November 7.

Trump negotiated this deal with Russia to reduce diesel prices. Under the agreement, Russia lifted its export ban on diesel.

It is noteworthy that after the Ukraine war, the European Union imposed a ban on Russian oil. Russia has since exported most of its diesel to Turkey and Brazil.
