WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - US President Donald Trump said on Friday that there is going to be a big announcement related to the situation with diesel fuel.
On Monday, Trump signed an executive order temporarily authorizing the use of dyed diesel fuel on public roads and granting a deferral on federal diesel taxes amid record-high prices.
"We have a big announcement coming up on diesel," Trump said from the White House.
Dyed-red diesel is traditionally intended exclusively for agricultural and construction machinery; however, amidst a sharp rise in prices, the administration has lifted restrictions on its use until the end of the year.
