NBC News: Trump eases Russian oil sanctions as Iran war sends prices spiking

What I am seeing is that Trump started an illegal war to fund Putin's illegal war.

Trump has taken out 1 Putin ally (Venezuela) and is about to take out 2 more (Iran and Cuba). The loss of Iran will also greatly impact Russia's capacity for drone warfare and once we secure the trifecta, we will have fewer distractions for aiding Ukraine.

I don't think Vlad feels very consoled.

Why has Trump eased sanctions on Russian oil - and will it help Putin?

The Trump administration's decision to ease sanctions on countries buying Russian oil has been welcomed by the Kremlin and has sparked deep concern among pro-Ukraine campaigners.

The US waiver, active for one month, will let countries buy up Russian oil which, under current sanctions, has been floating at sea, unable to be sold.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the "tailored, short-term" policy move would reduce the economic impact of the US-Israel war with Iran.

I can understand DUpipo not liking the possibility than this might bypass Iran's effort to disrupt world oil prices. And lying about what Trump is trying to do.
