A rather bold request by Mr. Shukin, but there is a nuance. A reminder that the reason for contact is as follows. The RSPP has been coordinating the participation of Russian businesses at the Business Twenty (B20) since 2013, and the organization wants to maintain this role ahead of the G20 summit in Miami in December. According to Shukin, such a step on the part of the United States would be a continuation of positive changes in relations after the recent "diesel deal" between Moscow and Washington, as well as the expected negotiations on Ukraine in Abu Dhabi. RSPP has been under US sanctions since August 2023 (due to activity in the technology sector). At the moment they are only talking about Shukin's own initiative and proposal to submit an application to the US Treasury; There is still no official decision from Washington. And what do you think, when the congressional elections take place on November 3, does Trump risk breaking the law? Well, the new Congress will certainly not agree to that and will ask for sanctions relief.
