[Zelensky: Attacks on Russian Diesel Will Not Affect Global Prices; Proposes Guaranteeing Black Sea Shipping Security] 1. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Ukraine is currently launching attacks on Russian diesel, but this will not affect prices in the US or globally. He noted that Russia's current share of global exports is only 2.2%, making the impact almost zero, while the Middle East wars have a much greater impact on energy prices. 2. Zelensky also proposed establishing a rule: ships flying the Turkish flag or other flags must be able to enter Ukrainian ports without being attacked by Russia, and Ukraine will similarly not attack such ships entering Russian ports. He believes that even such a minimal measure can guarantee the security of the Black Sea.
