NewzEU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas stated on Saturday that the lifting of sanctions on Russian diesel provides the Kremlin with essential revenue to continue its military operations in Ukraine. This development follows an announcement by US President Donald Trump regarding a deal for Moscow to supply fuel to international markets.
The statement from Brussels coincided with reports of Russian strikes resulting in the deaths of over 80 Ukrainian civilians within a two-day period. The EU maintains that the financial gains from these fuel exports directly undermine efforts to limit Russia's capacity to wage war.
