Kremlin ties diesel export resumption to sanctions relief and Black Sea safety
InterfaxLO·RU·about 16 hours ago
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that sanctions on diesel imports must be lifted, emphasizing that only a comprehensive solution is possible. This marks a notable shift in rhetoric, as Moscow typically frames sanctions as illegitimate and unlikely to be reversed. The statement suggests potential economic pressure or a diplomatic overture, though no concrete policy change or negotiation is confirmed.
