Nội dung chi tiết
None of the tankers carrying Russian diesel fuel that Moscow dispatched under the so-called diesel deal is now heading to the United States.
The last vessel to change course was the Agioi Fanendes, which was carrying a cargo of 300,000 barrels of fuel. Before approaching the US coast, it began sailing in zigzag patterns and then listed a new destination in South America.
Three other vessels had previously changed their destinations. One has already arrived in Egypt, while the other two headed for Brazil.
In the case of Russian diesel fuel, potential US buyers were also deterred by legal complications related to sanctions and the results of the congressional elections. Buyers risked becoming targets of investigations by the newly elected Congress.
Donald Trump himself said recently that his diesel deal with Putin was aimed not so much at supplying the United States as at bringing additional volumes of fuel to the market.
