The #Trump admin’s talks with #Russia about ending the #war in #Ukraine have expanded to include a multibillion-dollar #oil deal that would benefit #MiddleEast business execs with ties to the 2 main #US negotiators, #SteveWitkoff & #JaredKushner.
The deal, which is contingent on approval from the #USgovernment & the Kremlin, is for a sprawling set of oil fields, refineries & gas stations around the world owned by #Lukoil, one of Russia’s biggest #energy companies.
