Rubio Says U.S. Wants to End Russian Oil Waivers “As Soon as Possible”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio revealed that the Trump Administration aims to end the sanction waivers allowing Russian oil sales as soon as possible, highlighting a shift in U.S. policy towards stricter enforcement of sanctions. This move comes after the U.S. extended the waivers multiple times since the conflict with Iran, reflecting a temporary concession to global oil supply disruptions. Ending these waivers signifies a strategic pivot that could impact global oil prices and geopolitical relations, especially with Russia.
