Trump said on social media he had a “highly successful” discussion with President Vladimir Putin in which they agreed that Russia will immediately supply more than 300,000 metric tons of diesel to US and global markets, equal to about 2.25 million barrels of fuel.

Those sound like open targets for Ukraine.
Oh they won’t find them because Russia doesn’t have any diesel, they’ve been out for weeks now.
USA is threatening to withdraw support is Ukraine to continue strikes on refineries.

The local mood is 100% correct
It’s quite possible they have the amounts Trump is commenting in some unmarked warehouse somewhere.
Fuck the USA.
