US Fuel Supplier Cuts Ties with Military After Trump-Zelensky Dispute
Following a verbal clash between President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelensky, a US fuel supplier has severed its ties with the US military.
Fuel Supply Halted
Norwegian company Haltbakk Bunkers issued a strong statement, citing the Oval Office incident as the reason. The company declared a moral responsibility to stop supplying fuel to US military ships in Norway or vessels docked in Norwegian ports.
Haltbakk Bunkers also urged global nations to take a stand against the Trump administration. Both President Trump and Vice President Vance criticized Zelensky, accusing him of not wanting peace in Ukraine.
Support for Ukraine
Political analysts believe this move is a calculated decision. Meanwhile, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is attempting to act as a mediator between President Trump and European leaders regarding Ukraine.
Haltbakk Bunkers praised Zelensky and announced its immediate decision to halt fuel supplies. The company emphasized in its statement, "No more fuel for the US," and reiterated its support for Ukraine.
