Good, the sanctions have achieved absolutely nothing except disrupt trade between the two sides. It is just another reminder of Obama's weak approach to foreign policy.
And what about trade with Mexico and Canada that your messiah wants to disrupt? Does that not count?
If there's a God in this world, this stunt will awaken the Republicans out of their slumber and get rid of the manchild crybaby. It's time for President Mike Pence.
So I assume you oppose Trump's plans for Mexico considering they're our 3rd biggest export market...
Btw... Russia isn't even in our Top 10 export markets, so how exactly are those sanctions hurting us?
The approach towards Mexico is entirely necessary and will actually achieve something.
The sanctions with Russia on the other hand have been completely useless, Russia continued to make a fool out of Obama on the world stage, and it has seriously hurt a number of European allies, who rely heavily upon trade with Russia, yet reluctantly agreed to implement the sanctions at Obama's insistence.
The new authorization will allow US companies to pay up to $5,000 per year to the FSB — which oversees technology imports into Russia — to secure licenses from the security services to export information technology products to Russia, as long as other aspects of the sanctions order aren't violated, according to the document published by the Treasury.
You know as well as I do , this is President Bannon and his assistant Trump testing the water. They are seeing how strong the push back is and I could setup 1000 companies today all shipping $5K of high tech parts directly to the FSB..
Fact checking might take some time. But the treasuries dept clearly says Trump is EASING sanctions to allow FSB (KGB) access to tech they need...
sweet plan by trump to start the Oil ball rolling.

It is suppose to be streamline some unintended consequences popped up from sanctions to help our tech companies. I know, most MSM is going to latch onto it with scaremongering headlines. We will soon see McCain giving interview to MSNBC. There is going to be a fallow up from MSM about this using some internal sources leaked information in coming weeks. Rinse and repeat I guess.
He eased the sanctions against the FSB at that, spitting in the face of US Intel
I completely agree, it a shameful act by Trump, he is completely incompetent.
Both Parties are saying they don't like this in any way shape or form.
Trump (ie President Bannon) is acting without the support of congress or in fact anybody outside of his circle.
