Are those solutions going to be equally beneficial for both sides? Some analysts have doubts. U.S. Deputy Treasury Secretary Wally Adeyemo travels to Paris and Brussels this week. According to the U.S. side, the trip is about “trying to discuss more economic aid to Ukraine, managing economic spillovers from the conflict there, and carrying out a price cap on Russian oil exports.” The U.S. also intends to sell natural gas to the Europeans to offset their dependence on Russia.
