Regina Laska wrote that Donald Trump promised hundreds of thousands of tons of Russian diesel after a phone call with Vladimir Putin. The U.S. Treasury then allowed an exemption from the sanctions. Given the midterms in four weeks and a diesel price at record levels, Laska interpreted the move as a possible campaign maneuver. In mid-September, Trump publicly called on Volodymyr Zelensky to stop attacks on Russian refineries. According to a Reuters report led by Laska, at that time three of the six largest Russian diesel refineries were shut down or operating at limited capacity. She also pointed to a Russian export ban on diesel until the end of October and noted that Russia imported almost seven times as much diesel from Belarus from January to July as in the same period of the previous year. Deputy Prime Minister Novak is now talking about surpluses, she wrote; however, it is unclear whether the announced delivery quantities and deadlines will actually be met. Zelensky offered to stop Ukrainian attacks on Russian refineries if Russia ends its attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure. Laska referred to this as a symmetrical de-escalation offer that is on the table for the Americans. She also cited rocket attacks on a residential building in Pryluky, glide bombs on city buses in Kramatorsk, and shelling of the energy supply in Kyiv, Dnipro, Kharkiv, and Odesa. She warned that Russia would respond to the diesel with terrorism. The EU also criticized Laska: On September 22, Usmanov and Fridman were removed from the sanctions list under pressure from France, Slovakia, and Luxembourg. According to Laska, Zelensky pointed out that the attacks had since increased. At the same time, the EU extended the remaining personal sanctions from six months to three years. Latvia had long resisted the compromise and ultimately paved the way for it by abstaining. Laska compared Trump's diesel concession to Russia with the European compromise in favor of unanimity. In her view, the costs of such agreements are borne not by their authors but by the people in Pryluky, Kramatorsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Oleshkiv. #Trump #Putin #Dieselpreise (translated)

Deutschland baut Raffineriekapazität ab, bis zur Abhängigkeit Darüber sollten wir reden. 1980 lag unsere Rohölverarbeitungskapazität, Ost und West zusammengerechnet, bei rund 171 Millionen Tonnen jährlich. 2024 waren es nur noch 103 Millionen. Fast 40 Prozent weniger. Nicht, dass wir weniger Heizöl, Diesel und Benzin brauchen würden oder Grundstoffe für Chemie und Plastikproduktion. Wir brauchen weit mehr. Aber die CO2-Steuerung und unzähligen Regeln haben Raffinerien unrentabel gemacht, bis diese stillgelegt wurden. • Wilhelmshaven: 2010 geschlossen. Kapazität: 13,5 Millionen Tonnen jährlich • Wesseling: 2025 geschlossen Kapazität: 7,3 Millionen Tonnen jährlich 2007 importierte Deutschland noch 3,14 Millionen Tonnen Diesel und exportierte 9,39 Millionen. Exportüberschuss 6,25 Millionen Tonnen. 2025 importierten wir 12,46 Millionen Tonnen und exportierten 9,74 Millionen. Damit brauchten wir netto 2,72 Millionen Tonnen zusätzlich aus dem Ausland. Die Dieselimporte haben sich gegenüber 2007 fast vervierfacht. Klimapolitik und deutsche Politik hat uns vom Nettoexporteur zum abhängigen Importeur gemacht. Und natürlich ist auch das ein Grund für die hohen Spritpreise! #Energiepolitik #Raffinerien #Klimawandel
