Submission + - Trump set to ease oil-related sanctions following Putin call (theguardian.com)

hcs_$reboot writes: After a phone call with Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump said the U.S. will temporarily ease some oil-related sanctions, potentially including restrictions affecting Russian oil exports.
The move is meant to reduce pressure on global energy supplies, which have been disrupted by the U.S./Israeli war with Iran and the partial closure of the Strait of Hormuz, pushing oil prices above $100 per barrel.
Trump described the conversation with Putin as “positive,” saying they discussed both the Ukraine war and global energy stability.
But some argue that easing sanctions on Russian oil could undermine Western efforts to economically pressure Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.
