The administration led by Donald Trump has decided to extend the waiver that allows the sale of Russian oil transported by sea, despite pressures and criticisms from Congress and some Western allies. This measure, which was initially adopted last month, will remain in effect for about another month, according to available information. Critics argue that this decision could undermine international efforts to reduce dependence on Russian energy resources, in the context of current geopolitical tensions. This extension of the waiver reflects the complexity of the United States' commercial and political relationships, which must balance economic interests with national security.
