In short
President Donald Trump has waived many of the sanctions and tariffs imposed on Russia that were set to take effect on January 1, 2020, under a new law. The waiver allows the United States to continue its economic measures against Russia without the need to wait for the law to expire. This move is seen as a concession to Russia, as the law was passed to address concerns over the Russian government's alleged interference in the 2020 U.S.
