特朗普政府在多项对俄制裁生效前宣布豁免这些制裁，并与俄罗斯达成柴油进口协议35。国务卿卢比奥表示，特朗普将用最多60天时间权衡俄罗斯制裁政策2。特朗普声称此举是为了保持和平谈判进行，表示"我不想做任何愚蠢的事情将俄罗斯赶离谈判桌"3。
政府内部对该政策的解释存在分歧。能源部长赖特将柴油协议辩护为"结束战争的激励"，认为这是向俄罗斯提供的经济缓解以换取其结束战争4。他声称豁免制裁"不是经济救生圈"6。然而国务卿卢比奥则表示，俄罗斯无论如何都会出售柴油14，暗示该协议的和平激励作用有限。
此举遭到乌克兰和美国国会的强烈反对56。乌克兰总统泽连斯基对NBC News表示特朗普的立场是"历史性错误"，并指责特朗普在帮助普京3。特朗普则反驳称泽连斯基不想结束这场战争，称两年前本可以谈得更好3。俄罗斯特使基里尔·德米特里耶夫称这是"重要的历史时刻"3。土耳其将从美俄供应协议中获得部分柴油4。
President Trump has suspended sanctions on Russia set to take effect, a move that has triggered significant debate within his administration and sharp opposition from Congress and Ukraine.13 Trump stated that he does not want to do anything "stupid" that would drive Russia away from the negotiating table, framing the suspension as necessary to keep peace negotiations on track.3 Secretary of State Marco Rubio indicated that Trump will take up to 60 days to reassess the Russia sanctions policy.2
The administration has justified the suspension through a controversial diesel fuel agreement with Russia.34 Energy Secretary Pete Wright defended the deal as a "carrot" incentive to end the war in Ukraine, characterizing it as an economic gesture aimed at encouraging Russian compliance with peace terms.4 However, Rubio contradicted this framing by stating that Russia would sell diesel fuel regardless of any U.S. policy changes, suggesting the concession may not yield diplomatic dividends.14 Wright further argued that the sanctions waiver does not constitute an economic relief package.6 Turkey is set to receive a portion of the diesel from the U.S.-Russia supply arrangement.4
The move has faced fierce backlash from multiple quarters. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told NBC News that Trump's position represents a "historic mistake" and accused Trump of helping Putin.3 Zelensky also rejected Trump's suggestion that he was unwilling to end the war, countering that a better deal could have been reached two years earlier.3 Russian envoy Kirill Dmitriyev called the moment a significant historical development.3 Congress has expressed anger over the decision, with lawmakers and the administration disagreeing on the initiative's merits.15
