Zelenskyy says letting Russia sell diesel to US is 'investment in war'

Zelenskyy said the deal would give Moscow more money for the war and urged enforceable sanctions relief and de-escalation commitments.

  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with a Congress delegation in Kyiv on October 9, warning that easing sanctions on Russia without a binding agreement will enable Moscow to prolong the invasion.
  • Russian strikes recently targeted residential and civilian infrastructure in Pryluky, Kramatorsk, Kyiv, Dnipro, Kharkiv, and Odesa, causing dozens dead and hundreds injured while demonstrating the intensified aggression Zelenskyy warned against.
  • Kyiv formally proposed a mirror compromise to Western partners: Ukraine will cease strikes on Russian refineries if Russia guarantees a complete end to attacks on Ukraine's energy, port, and logistics infrastructure.
  • Zelenskyy expressed skepticism regarding Moscow's willingness to abide by an agreement, warning Russia might seek temporary relief for fuel markets ahead of elections before resuming strikes.
  • Demanding a firm stance from Washington, Zelenskyy called for full enforcement of sanctions under the Lindsey Graham Act, noting that past European measures easing sanctions were followed by intensified strikes.
