Trump delays Russia sanctions and tariffs for 60-day economic review

President Donald Trump has not made a final decision on Russia-related sanctions and tariffs he waived on Friday, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying officials need up to 60 days to assess the economic impact. The waiver, signed via executive order under the Graham Act, delays measures including tariffs on Russian goods and penalties on countries buying Russian oil and gas, which were due to take effect next week. Rubio said the review period will analyze effects on the global and US economies, citing India's reliance on Russian oil as a complicating factor. The decision drew criticism from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Senator Darline Graham, who said she disagrees with waiving pressure on Russia. Rubio defended a separate US-Russia diesel supply agreement aimed at easing fuel prices amid the Iran war and energy disruptions.
