A fresh clash has erupted between US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky after Trump announced a massive diesel supply deal with Russia, thanking Vladimir Putin for agreeing to release fuel for American and global markets. Zelensky has slammed the move as an “unworthy” and “weak” decision, accusing Washington of effectively rewarding Moscow while Russia's war against Ukraine continues. Trump says the deal will help meet America's energy needs and bring down fuel prices ahead of the November midterm elections. Meanwhile, an Axios report claims the decision followed tensions over Ukraine's attacks on Russian oil refineries. Zelensky has warned that Ukraine will intensify drone and cruise missile strikes against Russian energy infrastructure through the winter. As Washington pursues cheaper fuel and Kyiv seeks continued military support, the dispute raises fresh questions about Trump's approach to Putin and the future of US support for Ukraine. #donaldtrump
