Lithuanian PM calls US-Russia diesel deal 'shameful, disgraceful'

Lithuanian Prime Minister Mindaugas Sinkevicius publicly condemned a reported US-Russia diesel deal announced last week, calling it 'shameful, disgraceful' and questioning whether it is actually underway or merely a political claim. This marks a sharp Baltic-state rebuke of a potential US-Russia energy arrangement, signaling intra-NATO friction over policy toward Moscow. The deal's status remains unconfirmed, and its implications for European energy security and alliance cohesion are uncertain.
