Trump signs broad Russia sanctions bill
The bill signed by US President Donald Trump targets officials, banks, and a fleet of shadow tankers that transport Russian energy.
President Donald Trump signed legislation into law on Friday that imposes a suite of sanctions on Russia in response to its ongoing conflict with Ukraine. The bill, named after late Senator Lindsey Graham, received substantial bipartisan support in both chambers of Congress. It targets key sectors of Russia's economy, including banks and energy sectors, and imposes potential tariffs of up to 100% on major Russian oil importers.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed gratitude to Trump, as well as the lawmakers who backed the bill, emphasizing the importance of maintaining pressure on Russia to achieve peace.
