UK denies diesel shortage risk after Trump threatens US export ban

UK transport minister Keir Mather publicly insists Britain's diesel supply is 'inherently resilient' and that talks are underway with European partners on releasing emergency stockpiles, following President Trump's threat to cut US diesel exports. The statement aims to preempt panic buying, but the actual exposure of UK diesel imports to US supply remains unquantified. This marks a potential supply disruption in a key fuel market, with implications for prices and energy security.
