Germany holds firm on Russia sanctions amid US diesel deal criticism

Original: Bundesregierung betont Festhalten an Russland-Sanktionen »Moralischer Bankrott«, »skrupelloser geht es nicht«: Deutsche

The German government has stressed it is maintaining sanctions against Russia, after US President Donald Trump struck an agreement with Vladimir Putin covering diesel supplies. German politicians reacted sharply, accusing the deal of representing "moral bankruptcy" and saying things could not get more unscrupulous. The dispute highlights growing friction between European sanction policy and Washington's negotiations with Moscow.

Why now: A US-Russian deal on diesel deliveries has raised doubts about Western unity on sanctions, prompting strong criticism from German politicians.
