I don’t think the diesel deal helps the Americans. It does not bring down the prices.
At the same time, it gives a message to Russia that they can divide the international community, and that they can play one against the other.
Russia is definitely hoping to see the divide. That is why they think that time is on their and that's why they are not moving on the negotiations, not one inch, because they are waiting for the West to offer them something.
🇪🇺🇺🇦🇷🇺⚡️ — EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas:
If you don’t talk about the threat, is the threat going away? It’s not going away.
We really need to invest more in our defense to deter Russia, increase the pressure on Russia, deprive them of the funding of this war machine and at the same time provide defenses to Ukraine.

At G20, Lavrov wasn’t constructive at all. He was saying that Putin will talk to Zelensky if he comes to Moscow. This is not the way it is. There are many neutral places where they can meet.
If Putin would be serious, he would first stop killing civilians.
