## Resource

U.S. Treasury Secretary extends Russian oil sanctions waiver until mid-June, easing pressure on buyers like China and India. The decision, aimed at stabilizing the crude market and ensuring energy-vulnerable nations get necessary oil, has caught some European allies off guard. The move is part of a broader effort to increase overall oil supply, lower prices, and prevent oil hoarding. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
