Should the U.S. lift sanctions on Russia's main state investment fund?
The Trump administration is weighing whether to lift U.S. sanctions on the Russian Direct Investment Fund, a state vehicle once described by U.S. officials as a slush fund for Vladimir Putin, as Washington seeks warmer ties with Moscow and an end to the Ukraine war.

If you're picking "only as part of a Ukraine peace deal," what's the actual condition that satisfies you: troop withdrawal, elections, something else?
