    1. Classic carrot-and-stick move! first a broad waiver to calm oil markets amid the Iran/Hormuz mess, then a quick tightening to explicitly block Cuba/North Korea deliveries after that tanker incident.

    2. Submission statement:

      A few days ago the US eased some of its sanctions on tankers bearing Russian oil already at sea in an effort to lower oil prices after the closure of the Strait of Ormuz. Originally the order only excluded Iran but then an amendment was made adding Cuba and North Korea, as well as occupied parts of Ukraine. The amendment was made after reports that a Russian tanker delivered gasoline to Cuba this month.
