Trump's diesel deal with Putin draws criticism from a frustrated Congress

Original: Trump’s diesel deal with Putin draws criticism from a frustrated Congress

President Trump has struck a diesel-related deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin that is drawing sharp criticism from members of Congress, who say they were sidelined on an agreement with Moscow. Lawmakers on both sides are expressing frustration over the arrangement and questioning its terms and implications for US policy toward Russia.

Why now: A US president making an energy deal with Putin bypassing congressional input is politically contentious amid ongoing tensions over Russia.
