During the G7 summit in France, President Trump indicated the US may reimpose sanctions on Russian oil, following a conversation with Ukrainian President Zelensky. The US had previously allowed a three-month period for American companies to purchase Russian oil from tankers, a move that angered Ukraine and its allies. Trump initially suspended these sanctions following the start of conflict with Iran, aiming to mitigate a global energy crisis. He now claims the Strait of Hormuz is fully open following a tentative agreement with Iran. While not making a firm commitment, Trump hinted at renewed sanctions, coinciding with a renewed focus on resolving the war in Ukraine. Zelensky presented Trump with images of recent Russian attacks on a Kyiv monastery, reportedly impacting the US President. The leaders, along with those from other G7 nations, discussed the situation.
