The people around Zelenskyy, his support network, are struggling trying to find solid footing for a counter narrative.
That’s why these remarks from Zelenskyy sound weird; in reality, they just don’t quite know how to respond because what President Trump is revealing in the “diesel deal” with Russia really doesn’t have much to do with diesel fuel supplies.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy (via X) – “I don’t believe the volume of diesel Russia will export will affect the price. Moreover, we see that they can export from 300,000 to 500,000 tons a month today. Meanwhile, global consumption stands at 120 million tons a month. What kind of impact can that have? I don’t think it would have any. If some people think otherwise, so be it.
So I believe there are entirely different reasons behind these actions. If this is the approach, then why isn’t America making a “diesel deal” with Ukraine? Let Ukraine propose a “diesel deal.” We do have influence over whether these ships can sail or not, whether these refineries can operate or not. If that’s the case, then let’s do it.
Electricity is what matters to us. That’s clear. If we can be guaranteed protection for our power system, then we will not strike Russia’s diesel infrastructure in response. Electricity is first and foremost about helping people – keeping their lights on. It also means helping Europe. Everyone knows that we are connected to the European power grid. And if our energy infrastructure is not being destroyed, we can help some countries that are facing shortages by supplying them with cheaper electricity.
So, yes, let’s sign a corresponding “diesel deal” with the President of the United States.” (link)
Following the lengthy phone call with Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin, President Trump noted during remarks on the way to Ohio that his administration was unsure of who exactly would be conducting strikes against Ukraine power infrastructure. The lights going out in Kiev has a similar appearance to the performative air raid sirens whenever a high-profile EU govt official pays a visit [World War Reddit].
The answer to the Zelenskyy question is most likely, because the Trump-Putin diesel deal isn’t just about diesel. Just like the Belarus potash deal was not just about potash. What both the Russian-diesel fuel and Belarusian-potash have in common is an agreed pricing system that is outside western commodity structures.
Whether he intends it or not, President Trump is revealing the banking and finance system that profits from control of how energy products are bought and sold. This is further evidenced when you look at the Ukraine support assembly through the prism of what nations and political interests promote the climate change agenda.
It is not accidental that every nation and political apparatus supporting Ukraine is part of the green energy, climate change, Paris Climate Treaty, Build Back Better advocacy group.
On the banking/finance side, the western control system tries to block funding for coal, oil and gas. Those who price the markets for these energy products operate directly inside the same institutions. Chairman Xi, President Putin, Crown Prince MbS and President Donald Trump represent the other side of that dynamic and support traditional low-price energy development.
Europe is simply Europe, acting hypocritically and trying to survive financially. Europe is governing itself inside a system they built that is unsustainable. They rail against cheap energy yet purchase cheap energy from Russia; all while accusing Vladimir Putin of aggression….. yet demanding their purchase prices flow through the western banking/finance systems they control.
President Trump must be looking at all of this and listening to the arguments by Putin, Xi, Modi et al, that suddenly take on an entirely new context as he watches how this same western control system is leveraging its power structures to diminish his political strength and weaken his office.
It is fascinating to watch all of this play out with a context for understanding that is missed by most of our neighbors.

President Trump is going after those trillions at stake, the only way for America to truly win is to break away from the commodities markets as they exist today.
Little Z is not to be believed nor taken seriously, a simple mouthpiece for the wizard of Oz. Do we glimpse the little man behind the curtain yet?
The commodities markets are the home of mega-corporations and their base for control of governments world wide.
Zelenskyy’s request for a “deal” smells like desperation sweat.
London and the rest of Europe are desperate to keep their rotting economic system alive.
Zelenskyy’s survival depends upon that rotting system surviving.
Clearly, President Trump has decided to pull the United States out of the globalist/London economic fraud system, join with BRICS, meld BRICS into the American system, and shoot the old globalist/London system in the head.
Little Z realizes that the old economic system won’t be the only thing getting shot in the head.
Break out the popcorn; the next few months will be historic.
The Russia deal can export 3 to 500,000 tons of diesel per month. Z says global consumption is 120 tons a month, so this won’t have much impact. Wait. What?
Meanwhile, global consumption stands at 120 million tons a month.

What always impresses me about Trump is he continues to charge forward for America’s interests. He doesn’t slow down or play it safe just because midterms are coming up. He just goes and goes and goes. We’ve never had a President like this. We are very blessed to have someone at the helm who cares about saving this country and can go toe to toe with world leaders.
I hope to wake up some day to the news that Zelensky has been cast aside.
“We do have influence over whether these ships can sail or not, whether these refineries can operate or not.” Is little Z really trying to blackmail us?
I ask you, in so far as the rest of the world is concerned how is the current Ukraine any different from Iran? The EU needs to repair its own house for once and stop looking at greener pastures over the fence.
If Iran can’t get a nuke, Muslims will take over a country that has one. We can’t fix that.
The adorable Green Goblin Garden Gnome likely did a few lines of coke, prior to this press briefing
(which would explain the false bravado).
Lately, he has added some golden-rimmed glasses to his get-up to look a little more scholarly, no doubt.
If you look behind him, Ursula and Macaroni are fighting to see who gets to operate the puppet.
Meanwhile, AfD is busy neutering Merz, keeping him less visible.
Must be challenging to reset the IC’s thinking about who are our real enemies and who are not.
This is my 1st thought about the situation that the Euroweenies, GB & their puppet “president” 🧌 find themselves in.
Desperado

I think that PDJT wandered into the manipulated commodities pricing market when he 1st asked “WHY AREN’t PRICES COMING DOWN?”
Then he went looking for the answer. Here we are… he found it.
Between Treehouse and Sundances explanations and Promerthen Action every thing to me is so much more clear. I cut cable and MSM years ago like Rush♥️ always said.I learn from some of the comments from here as well.vBut some who say Lockem up,put them in jail crowd please stop you are embarrassing yourself.🇺🇸👍
