US media quotes the White House press secretary as saying this is because of sanctions on Moscow.

Russia was not included in the countries hit by Trump’s tariff. The press secretary say it’s because previous sanction “preclude any meaningful trade,” but other countries that do even less trade, such as Syria, were on the list.

    The US imposed large-scale sanctions on Russia after its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Trump has generally taken a friendlier approach to Russia since his return to the White House.
