🇺🇸🇻🇪⚡️- "The Trump administration has collected more than $13bn in revenues from Venezuelan oil sales this year, according to FT calculations, but has said almost nothing about what has happened to the money.

The US took control of Venezuela’s oil exports and suspended some sanctions after capturing President Nicolás Maduro in January and installing vice-president Delcy Rodríguez as leader.

Washington has given diverging accounts of what it is doing with the money, ranging from an executive order describing its own role as “custodial” to President Donald Trump saying the US was “making a lot of money” from Venezuelan oil.

The Venezuelan government set up a website to track the revenue from US-run oil sales, but it has only one entry — a transfer of $300mn in March." - Financial Times.

🇪🇺🇷🇺⚡️- The European Union has approved the 21st sanctions package against Russia.

This sanctions package primarily targets Russian financial institutions, and expanding shadow fleet sanctions. It still allows European Union countries to buy Russian oil and gas capped at the existing $44.10 per barrel limit, and has lowered restrictions on Greece exporting Russian LNG to third party, non EU states.

Greece has been given an exemption to continue shipping this LNG for the foreseeable future, despite the EU intending to ban these imports in January 2027. The exemption will be reviewed annually, but as Greece did this time, they are able to use their veto to block actions unless they get the exemptions extended. As we previously reported, Greek shipping companies have continued to be a major transport bridge for Russian gas throughout the war.
