Scenario description
Assume that by the resolution date European governments, the IEA, G7 members, or another coordinated official mechanism authorize and begin an emergency diesel or distillate stock release or binding drawdown plan in response to U.S. pressure, and no binding U.S. diesel or distillate export restriction is in effect at the cutoff. The reported U.S. request for 120 million barrels over six months is the referenced negotiating demand; the actual authorized volume, timing, participating countries, and product definitions remain whatever officials announce.
