    US administration "Trump" starts easing sanctions against Russia


    Improving relations with Russia, the new US president Donald Trump has the priorities of his presidency, not losing time to show this.

    After warm conversations with President Vladimir Putin telephone, the next step is to ease the sanctions era "Obama".



    The Treasury Department announced Thursday it would allow some US companies to do business with limited Russian Federal Security Service, known as a "FSB". This marks a first step towards reducing the sanctions imposed at the end of the administration, "Obama".

    A senior State Department said that the movement was actually a technical adjustment of the sanctions in force, in order to avoid unintended consequences in the relations between the US and Russia.

    His Trump had refused to accept that ease sanctions against Russia during a meeting with leaders of "Harley Davidson" at the White House. The same attitude was his spokesman, Sean Spicer, during a press conference.

    "From what I understand, it is a common practice of the Department of the Treasury, after the entry into force of sanctions considering whether to make exceptions to certain industries or different products," said Sean Spicer, spokesman for House white.

    Yet, according to him, the move did not reflect a change in policy. US intelligence agencies accuse the FSB intervention in US elections.
