Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says a new U.S.-Russia diesel fuel supply agreement is damaging to efforts aimed at peace in Ukraine. Carney relays this view to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, according to his office, in a call held on the day the diesel arrangement was discussed publicly.
Carney also emphasizes the need for an “energy ceasefire” and says Russia must uphold any relevant commitments. In separate reporting, he reiterates that attacks on energy infrastructure and civilians should stop immediately, framing the dispute as linked to stability around energy supplies.
Outlets also highlight Carney’s continued role in energy trade with the United States, saying Canada intends to maximize oil and diesel exports to the U.S. The coverage differs in emphasis—some focus on the peace implications of the diesel deal, while others stress the call for an energy ceasefire—while agreeing on the core points: Carney’s message to Zelenskyy, his concern about the U.S.-Russia fuel agreement, and his stance that energy-related attacks must end.
