Graham: Senate will move ‘soon’ on Russia, China sanctions

UNITED STATES, JUL 8 – The Senate bill includes a 500% tariff on imports from nations buying Russian energy, aiming to economically pressure Russia amid escalating conflict in Ukraine, with 80 bipartisan cosponsors.

  • Senator Lindsey Graham announced that the Senate will move soon on bipartisan sanctions targeting Russia, China, and India to pressure Vladimir Putin to end the Ukraine war.
  • The legislation stalled for months due to White House concerns about diplomatic efforts, but recent signals from Senate leaders and President Trump suggest renewed momentum.
  • The sanctions legislation would levy severe penalties on various Russian officials and industries, including the implementation of 500% secondary tariffs on nations such as India and China that engage in trade with Moscow.
  • Graham emphasized the need to push back against Putin by imposing tougher measures, and President Trump expressed that it is time to take action, highlighting the increasing urgency among lawmakers.
  • If enacted, the sanctions could increase pressure on Putin’s war efforts and signal bipartisan resolve, though Trump’s next move could accelerate or stall the legislative process.
