Dunno, it is hard to accuse the guy who temporarily lowers the sanctions to soften the effect on the world economy in a phase of tumult if he was the one who imposed said sanctions in the first place.
It stings but sometimes you have to choose the lesser of two evils.
We can start to be angry if the Hormus blockade eases down but the sanctions won't get reinstated.

It was not just the USA:

The European Union, the United States, the United Kingdom, G7 nations, and Australia have enforced strict sanctions on Russian oil, including a maritime import ban and a price cap mechanism, bolstered by direct sanctions on major Russian companies like Rosneft and Lukoil.

US is throwing the others under the bus just as usual.

Lesser of two evils would be to stop murdering civilians / attacking Iran and stop supporting genocide. Then the blockade will cease.
