US diesel prices hit new record high as Trump seeks to blame Kyiv
Average diesel prices in the United States struck a record high of just under $6.27 a gallon Tuesday, pressuring President Donald Trump ahead of midterm congressional elections.
Diesel prices have soared as Washington's war with Iran disrupts the world's flow of fuel, though Trump has repeatedly downplayed the effects of the war, pinning the blame on Kyiv instead for its attacks on Russian oil refineries.
