      Trump hasn’t lifted any sanctions on Russia yet. He prolonged them for a year in February, and has been trying to offer the perspective of lifting them in exchange for peace negotiations. But since Putin hasn’t started negotiating in earnest yet, no sanctions have been lifted as far as I know.
