 ** Zelensky Blames Trump Amid US Diesel Price Crisis**
​
Zelensky appeared on **American television** and took aim at Trump over soaring diesel prices.
​

> 'Everyone understands that diesel prices do not depend on our strikes on Russia. Everyone understands that they depend on the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz,'

 he said.
​
The remarks come ahead of elections to the **Senate and House of Representatives**. If Trump loses his majority in Congress, his ability to push decisions through on his own would be significantly reduced.
​
 The diesel crisis affects virtually **every American**, including those who drive gasoline cars or do not own a vehicle at all, as diesel costs feed directly into **retail and transportation prices**.
