He said another 500,000 tons of diesel would be released in November, followed by 1 million tons in December.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Additionally, based on the condition of their Diesel Refineries, Russia will then deliver, within a short period of time, 3,000,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel,&#8221; Mr. Trump continued. <\/p>\n<p>The Treasury Department also <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/USTreasury\/status\/2108630834169385310\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced Friday<\/a> that it would temporarily waive sanctions on Russia&#8217;s energy sector to &#8220;allow the supply of Russian diesel to the global market.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The moves by the Trump administration mark a reversal of the tight sanctions that have constrained Russia&#8217;s economy since Putin launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

And remember, what have we done? We stopped Iran from having a nuclear weapon. That&#8217;s big time. And the prices \u2014 the prices will come tumbling.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Diesel prices have skyrocketed in recent months amid the war with Iran. The average price of a gallon of diesel is $6.28, <a href=\"https:\/\/gasprices.aaa.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to AAA<\/a>, which is up from $5.94 a month ago and $3.68 a year ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Diesel had never previously crossed $6 a gallon until just before Labor Day weekend. The record, hit on Sept. 22, was $6.53 per gallon. Diesel is widely used in the trucking, agriculture and construction sectors, so it&#8217;s a factor for nearly every type of good, including groceries.<\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration has looked into several ways to lower diesel prices, most recently signing an executive order this week <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-red-dyed-diesel-executive-order\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">allowing the use of red-dyed diesel<\/a><\/span> on highways. Red-dyed diesel is exempt from the federal tax of 24.4 cents a gallon that applies to regular diesel.<\/p>\n<p>The president also argued Thursday the U.S. has &#8220;TOTAL CONTROL&#8221; over the Strait of Hormuz, as American forces <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CENTCOM\/status\/2108224804272963724\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">escort millions of barrels of crude oil through the waterway every night<\/a>. Iran has continued to target some of those ships, however, including one earlier on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Between our TOTAL CONTROL of the Strait of Hormuz, and this great announcement on Russian Energy, Diesel Prices for Americans and, indeed, the World, will be COMING DOWN, IN RECORD NUMBERS, AND FAST!&#8221; Mr. Trump wrote on Truth Social. &#8220;Lower prices for Americans, especially our Great Farmers, Ranchers, and Truckers, is my Greatest Priority. This is a very big and important announcement.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list
