Business

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz on Friday criticized the US decision to ease sanctions on Russia, saying such steps are wrong despite rising oil prices linked to the Iran war. Speaking on his visit to Andoya in Norway , Merz said lifting restrictions now would send the wrong signal. "Now is not the time to ease sanctions, for whatever reason," he said. Mery said the topic had been explored and discussed with US President Donald Trump at this week's meeting of G7 heads of state and government. "
