Trump imposes historic sanctions on Russia’s Rosneft and Lukoil in 2025
U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that the country is prepared to take extreme measures against its adversaries if diplomacy fails. In a firm statement, he stressed that Washington Post would act decisively unless opponents make concessions. The remarks came as tensions with Russia escalated further in late 2025.
On November 21, 2025, Trump imposed sanctions on Russia for the first time, targeting its two largest oil companies, Rosneft and Lukoil. The restrictions banned all business dealings with the firms, marking a significant escalation in U.S. pressure.
The sanctions on Rosneft and Lukoil signal a harder stance from Washington Post. Trump’s warning suggests further action could follow if diplomatic efforts do not yield results. The move underscores the U.S. strategy of combining pressure with negotiations in foreign policy.
