US companies shunning Russian diesel as tanker carrying that fuel idles off East Coast - Reuters
In short
Domestic buyers have halted purchases of Russian diesel shipments, leaving a vessel stranded off the East Coast. Commercial firms within the United States are actively shunning the imported fuel. Consequently, a tanker carrying the cargo remains stationary in coastal waters without offloading authorization. This development demonstrates immediate supply friction as American companies step away from Russian energy supplies.
