What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The U.S. Department of the Treasury extended the license allowing negotiations for the sale of Lukoil’s foreign assets until November 21, 2026, replacing the previous October 22 deadline. This license permits negotiations and the signing of conditional agreements, though the execution of the transaction requires separate U.S. approval. Separately, a U.S. military Boeing C-17 Globemaster III transport aircraft landed at Burgas Airport.

The license covers Lukoil’s international assets, which are valued between USD20 billion and USD22 billion. The extension allows Lukoil to continue discussions regarding the sale of these assets, despite previous offers from Gunvor and Carlyle Group failing to gain U.S. Treasury approval.
