Oil prices already spiking following US + EU's sanctions on Russia | DW News

US President Donald Trump wants to end the war in Ukraine and today it looks like his patience with the man who started it is wearing thin. For the first time since his return to the White House in January, the president is imposing direct sanctions on Russia over it's invasion of Ukraine. They target the country's two largest oil companies. Trump announced the measures after he hosted NATO Chief Mark Rutte for talks on how to support Ukraine.
