U.S. Imposes Stricter Sanctions on Russian Oil and Banking Sectors

The Trump administration has imposed stricter sanctions on Russia's oil, gas, and banking sectors by ending a waiver that allowed sanctioned Russian banks to process energy transactions through U.S. payment systems. The affected banks include major financial institutions such as Sberbank, VTB Bank, and the Central Bank of Russia. The move is expected to limit Russian oil exports and could lead to a $5 per barrel price increase. These tougher sanctions come as the U.S. continues negotiations with Russia on a proposed 30-day ceasefire to end the war in Ukraine.
