Trump to ExxonMobil: No waiver from Russia sanctions

[Disir]

The Treasury Department said Friday that it would not issue any waivers to U.S. companies — including ExxonMobil — seeking to do oil and gas drilling with Russia in violation of current economic sanctions.

In a statement that mentioned the company by name, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said his department had made its decision “in consultation with President Donald J. Trump.”

In July 2015, ExxonMobil had asked the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control to make an exception to the Russia sanctions, which were imposed after Moscow annexed Ukraine’s Crimea region in early 2014. ExxonMobil had sought to do deepwater exploration drilling in the Russian area of the Black Sea before the end of the year to prevent a joint venture agreement with Rosneft from expiring. Rosneft, whose chief executive, Igor Sechin, is a close confidante of President Vladimir Putin, is a sanctioned company.

ExxonMobil also said that rival oil companies in Europe were planning to drill in Russia.

So what you are admitting is that all the endless crying and wailing we've heard up to this day, about Trump being in the pocket of big business, and being a pawn of the 'corporate overlords', and how he was a tool of the 1%..............

You were all lying crying trash? You admit it? Finally one tiny bit of truth? You were all full of crap. All of you.

Lol,

I am admitting that not everything Trump does is wrong...Not admitting that he isn't a 1% dick sucking asshole that wants to weaken science, throw granny onto the street and is a bad president otherwise.

You see I can think and that means that I don't have to be 100% opposed to someone when they get something right.

Should America survive until Trump's tenure, 4 years or less, is over... then the Constitution and our system of government will have passed the ultimate test and nobody should ever complain about it again.

Putin's playing a long game. His end goal is the EU disbanding, and the U.S. succumbing to madness and losing it's influence. That's still on track, unless our system of government proves itself and survives the Trump presidency, as well as the failure of the alliances our European allies agreed to decades ago.

and all left-wing people on the face of this country would cease to exist.

Complaining is all you people do. Without complaining, left-wing ideology wouldn't exist. No matter how good it is, no matter how much better off we are as a country, you complain about everything. EVERYTHING.

Heck, you people are complaining that a man, can't go into a girls bath room and wave his dick around.... "because he identifies as....".

Please... any claim that you people will ever cease to complain..... lol..... that's a joke!

Read the forums dude. All you left-wingers ever do is complain. It's like half of all the threads on here.

andylusion et al, the reason people oppose Trump is that he is not good for Americans or the country. I will support where I can, and will oppose where necessary.
