Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky discussed a possible “energy cease‑fire” and an end to the war before winter, with Zelensky also requesting a new “winter package” of military aid. Diesel prices in the U.S. sit at $6.52, prompting some Republicans to push for a ban on diesel exports to ease costs for farmers and truckers, though the oil industry warns such a move could worsen the global energy crisis. Additional news includes Door Dash’s $131.5 million settlement with New York City over worker underpayments and Todd Boehly’s growing coalition to acquire Lukoil’s assets.
