Russia nearly doubled its diesel exports in October after US President Donald Trump announced a deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin to increase fuel supplies to global markets. However, none of the additional shipments has reached the US so far, with tankers originally headed for American buyers changing course amid opposition to the move and concerns over sanctions. Russia exported around 271,000 barrels of diesel per day in October, compared with 135,000 barrels per day in September, according to data provider Kpler. Instead of reaching the US, the additional Russian fuel went to markets such as Brazil and Turkey, allowing Moscow to increase sales despite uncertainty over the proposed American shipments, according to a report by The Financial Times.
