The economy minister of Germany, Katherina Reiche, stated on Friday that the recent decision by the United States to issue a 30-day waiver for the purchase of oil products from Russia was likely influenced by internal factors. Speaking at a press conference in Berlin, Reiche suggested that the move reflects the intense political environment currently facing American lawmakers.
It seems to me that domestic political pressure in the United States is very, very high.
