Summary

Six U.S. senators—Republicans Susan Collins, Thom Tillis, Lisa Murkowski and John Curtis and Democrats Jeanne Shaheen and Richard Blumenthal—issued a statement demanding President Trump "immediately reverse course" on a deal with Russia allowing Moscow to supply 800,000 tons of diesel to the U.S. over two months to help lower gas prices. The senators said the U.S. should not give Russian President Vladimir Putin "a financial lifeline" while Russia continues attacking Ukraine.
