Summary
Russia was excluded from Trump’s sweeping tariff list due to existing U.S. sanctions that limit trade, White House officials claimed.
Despite lower trade volumes, countries like Syria were still included, prompting skepticism.
Trump has prioritized ending the war in Ukraine and threatened 50% tariffs on nations buying Russian oil. Russian state media framed the omission as sanctions-based, not favoritism, with some mocking Trump’s harsher stance on allies.
Ukraine, meanwhile, faces a 10% tariff despite the country’s strategic partnership with the U.S.
There’s a pretty comprehensive article on The Verge outlining the likelihood of it bring probable.
No there isn’t.

Still waiting for you to admit you were wrong.
And wait more you shall ;)
Right, because even though we both know you were wrong, you’re too fragile to admit it.
Not fragile. I really do recall seeing an article about this, and digging into finding it to show that I was only wrong admit the citation and not the content of the comment and my heart. But thats a chore and I’m putting off spending time doing that.
Fragile little ego. So pathetic.
Come on, it’s not that long. You must have seen how utterly wrong you are by now.
Did you read it yet?
Lol the irony…
Of course I know what article you were talking about. Go ahead and read it again and then quote me where it says anything about generating a list of countries that somehow leaves out Russia.
