US Temporarily Suspends Sanctions for Russian Diesel Imports

The US has temporarily suspended sanctions to allow imports of Russian diesel, with at least one tanker confirmed to have sailed and three more en route, and a fourth scheduled.

Domestic political friction is evident, with a US Senator warning a Greek shipowner of legal consequences.
