US President Joe Biden will sanction more Russian oil tankers in the final days of his administration, according to sources cited by the Reuters news agency.
"It is a very substantial package. Two Russian oil companies, more than 100 tankers, oil traders, Russian insurance companies, etc.," said one of the officials, without naming the entities in question, writes A2 CNN.
It would be the latest in a series of moves that have seen Biden favor US support for Ukraine ahead of Donald Trump's return to the White House.
Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Washington has sanctioned dozens of ships from a fleet estimated to number in the hundreds, to reduce Moscow's ability to finance the war.
We recall that Donald Trump has promised that upon coming to power, he will reach an agreement that will end the war in a short time, writes A2 CNN. (A2 Televizion)
