"Attack the targets, but not the diesel": Trump asks Zelensky to stop attacks on fuel facilities in Russia

Sábado13 September 2026 at 18:50

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, asked this Sunday Volodymyr Zelensky for Ukraine to stop attacking diesel fuel facilities in Russia. The appeal was made directly to the Ukrainian president.

Trump claimed that Ukraine's attacks on Russian fuel facilities are causing a fuel shortage. The American president did not specify in which region or market this shortage is occurring.

According to the message transmitted by Trump, Ukraine should focus its attacks on other Russian military targets, rather than energy infrastructure related to fuels.

Why this matters

Readers are affected because Trump's request could influence Ukraine's military strategy in the war against Russia, altering the course of the conflict that has direct impact on European security. Zelensky's decision on whether to follow this guidance could determine the future of relations between the USA and Ukraine. WHY: Trump's guidance could significantly alter Ukraine's military strategy and affect the dynamics of the conflict with Russia, with direct implications for European security and the future of American support for Ukraine.
