US President Donald Trump says he has reached an agreement with Russian President Vladimir Putin allowing Moscow to "immediately release" diesel into the global market.
美国总统唐纳德·特朗普表示，他已与俄罗斯总统普京达成协议，允许莫斯科"立即"向全球市场释放柴油。
He said Putin had agreed to release 300,000 tonnes of diesel immediately, followed by 500,000 tonnes in November and another million after that.
他说普京已同意立即释放30万吨柴油，随后在11月释放50万吨，之后再释放一百万吨。
"Diesel Prices for Americans and, indeed, the World, will be COMING DOWN, IN RECORD NUMBERS, AND FAST!" Trump wrote on Truth social.
"美国人乃至全世界的柴油价格将以创纪录的速度大幅下降！" 特朗普在Truth social上写过。
An envoy to Putin welcomed the deal, but Ukraine's president said any easing of sanctions on Russia played into Moscow's hands and would prolong a war that must be ended.
一名派往普京的特使对该协议表示欢迎，但乌克兰总统表示，任何对俄罗斯的制裁放松都会落入莫斯科的圈套，并会延长一场必须结束的战争。
Diesel prices in the US have doubled since the war with Iran began in February, putting pressure on Republicans ahead of the midterm elections over the rising cost of living.
自2月伊朗战争爆发以来，美国柴油价格翻了一番，给共和党人在中期选举前的生活成本上涨带来了压力。
The average diesel price in the US is currently $6.28 a gallon, according to the AAA, down from the record high of $6.53 recorded at the the end of September.

普京的特使基里尔·德米特里耶夫在社交媒体上欢迎该协议，称："俄美在柴油和能源方面的合作将惠及世界。"
But Volodymyr Zelensky hit out at the deal, saying "gifts to Putin will not work for peace" and that Russia would repay the diesel with "further terror".

This year Russia has experienced two waves of severe fuel shortages across the country as a result of Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian oil refineries.

Trump has expressed his displeasure over those attacks, blaming them for rising fuel prices.
特朗普对这些袭击表示不满，指责这些袭击导致了燃油价格上涨。
But on Friday Zelensky defended the strikes, saying there were in response to "Russia's years-long campaign of terror against Ukraine's energy sector".

"Ukraine will not set Russian oil refineries on fire if Russia does not destroy our energy infrastructure," he said.
