@ArtHarg @randahl We have to remember that the monthly quantities of diesel are but a small fraction of what the US alone consumes in a week.
I have seen a calculation that suggests that the initial 300,000 tonnes of diesel amounts to 15-16 hours of US diesel fuel consumption.
This will do nothing to reduce pump prices in the US.
Let's just hope that this point is picked up by Fox News and broadcast to its viewers.
