Vance also referred to the diesel agreement with Russia and the criticisms raised about it, stating, "We saw an opportunity to reduce diesel prices. Criticisms regarding the lifting of sanctions against Russia are baseless, as they have always been able to sell their diesel."

The Vice President of the United States highlighted the economic problems faced by farmers, saying, "Why should we subsidize foreign countries? We need to create conditions for our farmers to have a good life." He pointed out that in this regard, the current government is working to create a favorable situation for farmers.
He also mentioned diplomacy and resolving disputes with countries, saying, "The question is whether there are ways to cooperate with other countries that would benefit the United States?" He emphasized that if there is an opportunity to reduce costs for farmers, it should be taken advantage of.
