Trump Warns Diesel Export Ban Could Send Gas Prices Higher
President Trump has threatened to ban U.S. diesel exports, which the country produces and exports more of than any other nation. Trump has acknowledged that such a ban could raise gasoline prices in the U.S., but has not ruled out implementing it. The White House has asked the European Union to release emergency diesel reserves as a condition related to the export ban threat. The situation remains unresolved, with Trump continuing to consider the ban despite its potential domestic costs.
