White House says it’s not preparing to ban diesel exports

The White House denied reports from Politico suggesting a planned 90-day ban on diesel exports as Americans face high gas prices. While the report cited five sources claiming the legal process was being finalized, the administration issued a statement refuting these claims. Concurrently, experts warn that a diesel export ban could backfire, potentially leading to higher prices within the US. The situation highlights the tension between domestic price stability and international trade regulations.
