According to the publication, the fund offered to mediate transactions for the sale of Russian diesel fuel to the Americans. In 2022, the Biden administration called the fund Putin's "wallet" and sanctioned it. Now the Trump administration is considering a request to cancel them. The White House believes that economic deals with Moscow can help end the war. At the same time, the US Treasury stated that the fund has already received the necessary permits to operate with Russian diesel. Separately, the department is examining the issue of removing the sanctions completely - for this the fund must prove that the reasons for their introduction are no longer relevant.
