Trump officials mull easing Shadow Fleet sanctions

The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump is studying the possibility of relaxing sanctions on the "Shadow Fleet" ships that transport oil from Russia, Iran, and Venezuela, aimed at reducing the sharply rising global shipping rates. These discussions come after a decision to suspend sanctions on Russian diesel until April, a move criticized by Zelensky and some members of Congress who believe it benefits Russia and helps finance its war against Ukraine. American officials are focusing on allowing the flow of non-sanctioned oil through those ships to increase oil shipments from the Gulf, despite experts and the maritime industry arguing that the impact of this measure on shipping prices will be limited, given that insurance restrictions and European regulations remain in place. Any potential adjustments are considered part of Trump's efforts to lower fuel prices ahead of the midterm elections, amid rising oil and fuel prices worldwide.
