Trump added that the rise in the global price of diesel was “mostly caused by the Russia/Ukraine War, not Iran,” one day after calling on Kyiv to halt attacks on Russian refineries.
In recent winters, Russia has frequently targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure to try to exacerbate difficulties of dealing with the cold.

The Strait of Hormuz, the vital passageway through which 20% of the world’s oil flowed prior to the war, was effectively closed by Iran after the U.S. and Israel coordinated attacks on the nation on Feb. 28.
