Hmmm. Heavy, dirty stuff, much like Bunker-grade fuel. A precursor, so to speak, for distillates like diesel fuel. I doubt it would transfer well without heating. A bit of a side benefit for the environment is it likely doesn't disperse well in cold water. According to Wiki, Iran uses it as a heating fuel.
We should also keep in mind that then President Trump instituted a lot of US training and Equipment into Ukraine when he was President the first time. He only got annoyed with Ukraine when they didn't turn over incriminating evidence against the Biden's - and everyone should remember that politicians on campaign or in opposition/out of office, are a LOT different than when they get back in to office...
You don't get to say y'all unless you liver south of the M-D Line, or we call that cultural appropriation

In all seriousness, I am really hoping that President Trump's second term really sets a benchmark for dealing with Russia, and 47 will be looked at like Ronnie for breaking the Evil Empire.

Then Russians will know it’s not the FSB doing Putin’s bidding, but out of his control.
Ah, makes perfect sense when you put it that way. Makes Putin look weak. Also, highlights the differences of dying from an exploding scooter vs dying from a fall from the first floor window of a building.
Israel also has something to gain by not admitting to what is essentially a act of war on another nation. Ukraine is at war with Russia so that benefit means nothing to them.
Of, if we really want to play wilderness of mirrors, maybe chemical warfare guy DID piss off USSR 2.0, which found an Uzbek to fess up & say UKR did it, and UKR is happy to take said credit. OK, maybe I've been online too long
