Trump scraps Russia sanctions amid Ukraine criticism

Donald Trump has reversed sweeping sanctions against Russia targeting the country's oil and gas revenue streams and major buyers of Russian energy. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has criticised the decision as wrong, stating it financially rewards Vladimir Putin. The reversal comes as Trump faces domestic pressure to reduce fuel costs ahead of midterm elections, while US-Ukraine relations remain strained following Trump's announcement of a deal to purchase Russian diesel.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
