Within two weeks, the US government has taken several steps affecting Russian President Vladimir Putin and the war in Ukraine, according to Euromaidan Press, a Ukrainian news outlet, in a piece published on 24 October.

The outlet says Washington imposed sanctions on the court that is prosecuting Putin. The US also waived its own sanctions on Russia. The third point it raises is that Putin was described as a humanitarian.

Euromaidan Press presents these developments under a headline claiming that Ukraine now fights two enemies, one of which is America. That is the outlet's own assessment rather than an established fact.

The available excerpt does not specify which sanctions were waived, for how long, or what official reasons were given. It also contains no responses from US officials or from the Ukrainian government. These details remain unconfirmed, so they cannot be assessed until the full text or official statements are available.
