Trump Caves Over Threat to Russia in Humiliating U-Turn

Donald Trump has backed down on his threat to stop nations from supplying oil to the struggling island of Cuba.

The president, 79, confirmed on Sunday that he approved a Russian oil tanker’s passage to Cuba, despite his administration enforcing a virtual oil blockade on the island since January.

President Vladimir Putin’s efforts to force Trump to back down and relent on allowing the Russians to profit from selling oil to the communist regime appear to have succeeded.
