Kyiv • UNN
The US administration has revoked temporary waivers for Russian oil. Experts warn of mechanisms for Russia to circumvent the restrictions.
The United States of America has reinstated sanctions against Russian oil. This was reported by Politico, according to UNN.
Details
It is noted that this step will undoubtedly satisfy Ukraine's supporters, but Russia still has many ways to circumvent them.
Even before the license was issued, sanctioned Russian oil entered the market, as the Trump administration did not impose any counter-sanctions against Russia, whether on oil sales or critical purchases for the Kremlin's war machine, for more than a year
The authors indicate that until the last moment, the US did not unequivocally answer the question of whether they planned to extend the exception introduced last month to lower global oil prices.
Recall
In mid-March, the US temporarily eased sanctions against Russian oil amid the crisis in the Middle East. At the same time, official Washington announced its readiness to reinstate them after the regional escalation ends.
