U.S To Review Biden-Era Sanctions As Treasury Warns Restrictions Threaten Dollar’s Global Status
U.S sanctions review is underway as Trump orders a crackdown on ineffective Biden-era restrictions.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warns that weak sanctions threaten the dollar’s reserve status.
The US aims to intensify measures against Iran and Russia under ‘Operation Maximum Pressure.’ If Ukraine negotiations fail, tougher Russian sanctions remain on the table.
The U.S-Ukraine rare earth deal is finalized, with President Zelensky set to sign it during his meeting with Trump. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed there are no more negotiations. The agreement covers rare earth minerals, oil, gas, and infrastructure assets. However, the US has not provided the security guarantees Ukraine sought. Trump claims the deal will reimburse American taxpayers for their aid to Kiev.

Ukraine’s rare earths deal with the US collapsed after President Zelensky refused to grant Washington access to its mineral reserves. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent gave Zelensky just an hour to agree, offering military aid in return. Trump sought $500 billion worth of rare earths for past US support. Reports suggest Washington may send troops to guard these resources. Moscow condemned the deal, calling it unconstitutional. Ukraine, holding vast mineral wealth, is still seeking a better deal as discussions continue at global security summits.

President Donald Trump defended Elon Musk amid Democratic backlash over his access to Treasury payment systems. During a press conference with Japan’s PM Ishiba, Trump dismissed concerns, calling Musk "not shy" and praising his efforts in uncovering government fraud. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent backed Musk, calling him the "greatest entrepreneur." Meanwhile, Democrats accuse Musk of having undue influence after reports surfaced that DOGE found payments linked to fraudulent groups. The controversy intensifies as Musk’s role in Trump’s administration grows.

Trump NATO command shift is under consideration, as reports claim the US may give up its exclusive role in leading the alliance’s military command. The Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR) post, held by a US general since 1949, could be transferred to a European member state. This move aligns with Trump's longstanding criticism of NATO’s financial burdens on the US. While the proposal remains unclear, the potential shift could significantly impact transatlantic security and military operations in Europe. The Pentagon has yet to comment on the report.
