3. Europe’s dependence on Russian gas leaves it badly exposed when energy supplies are disrupted. 4. The US and Israel go to war with Iran, worsening the global fuel supply crunch. 5. Diesel prices soar.

6. The US eases restrictions on Russian diesel and turns to Moscow to help lower domestic fuel prices. Now, spot the ally acting like a double agent: urging Europe to stop buying Russian energy while cutting its own fuel deal with Moscow. Playing both sides. Leaving its allies to foot the bill.
