US President Donald Trump has announced $8 billion in aid to American farmers affected by rising diesel fuel prices to cover the costs of the current crop season.
elchi reports that he announced the launch of the new Crop Fuel Assistance program at a rally in Kansas with Republican Senator Roger Marshall.
“When Republicans win, we will provide even more funding for our great farmers,” Trump said.
According to The Wall Street Journal, Republicans are facing tough races in states like Iowa and Kansas on the eve of the November midterm elections, where rural voters, who have traditionally supported the party, have been significantly affected by the sharp increase in diesel fuel prices as a result of the Iran conflict.
Against this backdrop, the US leader emphasized that the diesel deal with Moscow was the right choice for the American people, and that the European Union pays Russia $250 billion for energy, but the fake media will not touch this news.
The first tanker carrying 40,000 tons of diesel fuel will depart for the US in two to three days, as announced by Russian President Vladimir Putin on October 21.
