President Donald Trump said Friday he was ruling out a diesel export ban and never really considered one in the first place, hours after Europe caved to U.S. pressure and agreed to release fuel from its stockpiles.

The announcement appears to put to rest more than a week of frantic lobbying across two continents after surging fuel prices — caused by the ongoing war against Iran as well as Ukrainian attacks against Russian refineries — have angered farmers and put pressure on the Trump administration to act ahead of the November midterm elections.

"Europe has a lot of diesel, and they're going to be making a major world contribution, and so are we," Trump told reporters as he left the White House for a campaign trip. "And we're not going to be doing the export ban.

"It was never really ever on the table, but what Europe did was a great thing," he added.

Trump had repeatedly said over the last two weeks that he was open to suspending exports of the fuel, which would have been the first restriction on U.S. energy exports since the Obama administration lifted a decades-old ban on oil exports in 2015. The president said just over a week ago that "I've called for that" when asked about a possible ban.

But Energy Secretary Chris Wright and the president's allies in the oil industry publicly condemned the idea, warning it could pose major economic problems for foreign countries who rely on U.S. imports and eventually result in higher pump prices at home as refiners scaled back production.

Those advisers urged Trump instead to push Europe to release fuel from its stockpiles, prompting a frantic public and private campaign of European governments by Trump administration officials. The G-7 announced Friday morning they would release 100 million barrels of diesel and crude oil from their strategic reserves over the next four months, beginning with a "frontloaded substantial diesel release within the first 20 days."

POLITICO reported earlier Friday that the U.S. had essentially strong-armed hesitant EU governments into releasing their diesel supplies with the threat of an export ban, with one European diplomat labeling it "blackmail."

Trump told reporters Friday that he had "asked for" Europe to tap its stockpiles, but maintained that the Europeans had decided to tap their stockpiles out of their own volition.

"We have a very good relationship with Europe, and they wanted to do it because they have a lot of diesel," Trump said. "I said it would be great if you put it out to the markets, and they did it."

The Trump administration could still announce further measures on diesel prices short of a ban next week, according to two people familiar with the discussions. Among the ideas being evaluated are pushing more states to lift restrictions on red-dyed off-road diesel and suspend excise taxes on diesel sales.

The FlyDubai co-pilot accused of stabbing the captain of a passenger jet mid-flight and nearly causing a catastrophic crash was grounded by Oman Air in 2024 after the airline discovered he had been visiting radical Islamic websites, according to a source familiar with the matter.

Authorities believe the co-pilot moved to Dubai later that same year, according to the source, who also told Fox News the co-pilot spent a significant part of his life outside Oman, including with his mother, who is from Syria.

According to the source, FlyDubai did not check with Oman Air about the co-pilot before hiring him.

The new details come as The Wall Street Journal reported Friday, citing people familiar with the matter, that the Omani national had previously been banned from flying over concerns he had adopted radical ideological views before later being hired by FlyDubai. The newspaper reported it was unclear whether Omani officials shared those concerns with other countries or airlines.

Fox News has not independently verified the reason the co-pilot was grounded by Oman Air.

The alleged attack unfolded Wednesday aboard FlyDubai Flight 1073 as the aircraft traveled from Dubai to Tel Aviv.

According to passengers and officials, the co-pilot allegedly stabbed the captain inside the cockpit, sending the aircraft into a steep dive that nearly tore it apart before two reserve pilots aboard the flight regained control and safely diverted the aircraft to Saudi Arabia. Passengers and crew members then helped overpower the suspect, according to accounts of the incident.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Friday described the incident as terrorism, saying the attacker had undergone "Islamic radicalization."

"He came to crash the passengers on board," Netanyahu said, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Netanyahu also said Israeli authorities are investigating whether the suspect acted alone or had assistance from others.

The United Arab Emirates is leading the investigation into the incident. A UAE spokesperson declined to comment to the Journal on the suspect's background, saying officials did not want to prejudice the outcome of the investigation or interfere with its course.

The incident has prompted renewed scrutiny of airline pilot vetting procedures and aviation security on flights serving Israel. Aviation security analysts told the Journal the episode represented a significant security failure and raised questions about how warning signs may have gone undetected before the co-pilot entered the cockpit.

FlyDubai has suspended flights between Dubai and Tel Aviv following the attack.

FlyDubai did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
