Trump hat, eigentlich beinahe wider Erwarten, die Sanktionen gegenüber Moskau um ein Jahr verlängert. Vermutlich arbeitet man in Washington sogar an einer Ausweitung der Sanktionen. Hintergrund ist, dass Trump über das Lavieren der Russen und das Ausbleiben eines Waffenstillstandes wohl zunehmend verärgert ist. (Dass das nicht so einfach werden würde, hätte er aber eigentlich wissen können.)

Zitat:Trump extends Biden's sanctions executive order against Russiahttps://kyivindependent.com/trump-extend...st-russia/
U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order extending for one year the sanctions against Russia originally imposed by former President Joe Biden in April 2021 over Russia’s harmful foreign activities, according to an April 10 document from the U.S. Federal Register.
"Specified harmful foreign activities of the Government of the Russian Federation continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. For this reason, the national emergency must continue in effect beyond 15 April 2025," the document says. [...]
In recent days, the U.S. president has renewed his push for a ceasefire. Axios reported on April 11, citing an undisclosed source, that Trump could impose additional sanctions on Russia if a ceasefire with Ukraine is not reached by the end of April.
