Trump reports Europe ready to release strategic diesel reserves

US leader announces release of reserves

US President Donald Trump revealed that European states have agreed to release part of their strategic diesel fuel reserves from storage. According to him, these reserves will be directed to the market in the near future.

Associated Press and other international media report this.

Context of negotiations and objectives of the measure

Previously, the Trump administration appealed to European countries, specifically Germany and France, to reduce their existing diesel fuel stocks. This decision was driven by a sharp increase in energy prices.

The European Union is already considering the possibility of releasing reserves. Meanwhile, the specific volumes of fuel to be released and the timelines for these operations are still being coordinated.
