The United States is preparing a plan to potentially ease sanctions on Russia as President Donald Trump pushes to restore relations with Moscow and end the war in Ukraine, a U.S. official and another source familiar with the matter told Reuters.
The White House has directed the State and Treasury departments to compile a list of sanctions that could be lifted. U.S. officials are expected to discuss the proposals with Russian representatives in the coming days as part of broader diplomatic and economic negotiations, the sources told Reuters.
The reported development comes amid increasing tensions between the U.S. and Ukraine after Trump's contentious meeting with Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House on Friday.
