The U.S. fears Russia shared American military secrets with Iran, but Trump still trusts Putin despite suspicions.

The White House said President Trump would not be happy if Russia shares U.S. military intelligence with Iran, following reports Moscow may have passed sensitive data on American positions in the Middle East. Despite U.S. intelligence suspicions, Trump praised Putin’s cooperation and said the U.S. is taking Russia’s denials at face value. In a related move, the U.S. temporarily lifted sanctions on some Russian oil sales to India to stabilize global energy markets. Officials downplayed the financial impact, calling the step short-term. The situation remains under scrutiny amid ongoing regional tensions and U.S. military operations in the Middle East.
