Trump's (R) Deal with Russia to Import Diesel to the U.S., would barely Dent Prices in the U.S., and would also continue to F Russia's Invasion of Ukraine. Last week the Tankers that were bound for the U.S. Changed Course after mounting Political Pressure to keep them from Docking.
"None of them have been able to find a port that is willing to take them, and None of them have been able to find a bBuyer that is willing to take them," said Eugene Goncharov, Policy Director for the American Coalition for Ukraine.
Ship Tracking Data shows several Diesel Tankers Halted in the North Atlantic Ocean. Of the Three headed for the U.S., Two have Changed Course. The Third, which previously Listed New City as its Docking Port, currently says it's Waiting for Orders.
Among those Rallying Against the Deal is New Jersey's Governor, Mikie Sherrill (D). She Warned Ports in a Letter last week, saying "New Jersey will not stand by while Donald Trump supports Vladimir Putin at the expense of Americans. Instead of lLowering costs, He is helping Finance Putin's war against Ukraine, and a global campaign of violence that endangers U.S. service members aAbroad. As a Navy veteran, I cannot let that stand unchallenged. And New Jersey's ports shouldn't be complicit."
"It is not worth the risk. It is not worth the effort not only for Ukraine but also for the people here in America who should not be breaking federal law to bring this diesel in", said Julian Hayda, Public Engagement Director with Razom for Ukraine.
"Russian diesel is fueling the murder of civilians in their beds. And this war is only escalating and it paid for by Russian energy exports," He said.
"This amount will not change prices for American consumers even slightly," Goncharov said. "But it will make America a purchaser of Russian oil and that's a stain that will not go away."
