The US ignored European sanctions against a tanker delivering Russian diesel fuel as part of the Putin-Trump deal. Three tankers with 140,000 tons of Russian diesel are scheduled to arrive at US ports in the coming weeks, the "Financial Times" reports. One of them is under sanctions from the UK, EU and Canada since 2025 for transporting Russian cargo. We are talking about the animal tanker, owned by Hong Kong and flying the flag of Sierra Leone. However, no US sanctions were imposed against him. The FT writes that due to sanctions by the European Union and Canada, buyers of fuel from an approved tanker may face legal difficulties due to the fact that their economic and financial systems are closely intertwined with those of the United States. And members of Congress from both Democrats and Republicans have threatened in recent weeks about the consequences for buyers of Russian diesel. At the same time, Jeremy Finner, a partner at the Washington law firm Hughes Hubbard, said that while Congress was concerned about Trump's temporary license to import Russian diesel, he believed that the US president had the legal right to do so.
