00:02The U.S. may allow more Russian diesel exports onto the global market depending on Moscow's
00:07behavior, Energy Secretary Chris Wright told CNBC Tuesday. Wright described the Trump
00:12administration's suspension of sanctions against Russian diesel exports as an incentive to end
00:16the war in Ukraine. President Trump reached an agreement with Russian President Vladimir Putin
00:21to export 800,000 metric tons of diesel in October and November, followed by another million tons.
00:27Wright said more tankers could depart Russia under the sanctions waiver.
00:32Analysts said the shipments would have little impact on diesel prices because of their limited
00:37volume compared with global demand. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky criticized the
00:42agreement, while bipartisan U.S. senators condemned it as a concession to Russia.
