U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham's sanctions bill, approved by both the U.S. House and Senate, aims to intensify Western pressure on Russia, according to German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul. The legislation broadens the scope of potential U.S. sanctions, targeting any entities providing revenue that supports Russia's war against Ukraine.
Wadephul emphasized that the bill sends a clear message to Moscow, indicating that companies contributing to the conflict could face U.S. sanctions. He welcomed the move, stating that the increased economic pressure was intended to push Russia towards ending its war against Ukraine. Similarly, Ukraine has welcomed the new U.S. sanctions, with Ukrainian presidential sanctions policy envoy Vladyslav Vlasiuk expressing the hope that the measures against Russia and Iran would put additional pressure on Moscow's revenues from energy exports.
