Trump announces deal with Putin to release Russian diesel

The US uses ~600,000 tons of diesel per day, so releasing 800,000 tons before the midterms doesn't seem like it would lower prices very much. It makes me wonder why Trump is even bothering with this, besides just optics to look like he's doing something about energy prices.

Why would Putin do this when the US is aiding Ukraine? Starlink is being used to drone bomb Russia.
