It appears that ExxonMobil and the Donald Trump administration are trying to make big money by siding with Russia in the Russian-Ukrainian war against the rest of the world. I would like ExxonMobil to clarify that this is not the case. www.reuters.com/business/ene...

Exclusive: Exxon signs initial agreement with Rosneft to chart possible path to recoup Russian losses, sources say

U.S. oil major Exxon Mobil and Russian state-run energy giant Rosneft have signed a non-binding initial agreement to help Exxon recoup a $4.6 billion write-down it made on its activities in Russia in 2022 following Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, according to two sources familiar with the talks.
