Bond.az – The Trump administration let a key sanctions waiver expire, halting purchases of Russian crude by countries like India.

The license, extended temporarily last month to ease supply shortages after Iran's Hormuz closure, expired Saturday.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent had said he would not renew it.

Despite U.S. measures like SPR loans, gasoline stays at $4.50/gallon, the highest since 2022.
