Estonian PM calls US easing Russian diesel sanctions a mistake, vows refinery strikes

Estonian PM Kristen Michal publicly criticized the US decision to partially lift sanctions on Russian diesel, calling it a major mistake, and reiterated support for Ukraine's campaign to destroy Russian refineries. This marks a rare public rift between a NATO ally and Washington over Russia policy, signaling potential friction within the alliance. The statement is rhetorical but underscores Baltic states' hardline stance and could influence EU policy debates.
