    Oil Falls as Russian Diesel Supply Is Announced

    WTI futures began the week down 1.8% at $90.28, reversing the spike on Thursday.

    The decline follows President Donald Trump’s Friday announcement that his administration reached an agreement for Russia to supply 300,000 metric tons of diesel fuel to international and domestic markets. The move partially eases U.S. sanctions on Russian oil imports.

    Trump also claimed that Russia and Ukraine agreed to an immediate “energy ceasefire”. Ukrainian officials said they were not consulted, and Russian military strikes on Ukraine’s energy grid have since continued.
