Trump says Republicans drafting bill to sanction countries that trade with Russia

  • On November 17, 2025 in New York, President Donald Trump warned any country doing business with Russia will be very severely sanctioned as Republican lawmakers advance tough legislation.
  • The Sanctioning Russia Act of 2025 was introduced by Senator Lindsey Graham and Senator Richard Blumenthal, with 85 Senate cosponsors, to impose secondary tariffs and sanctions.
  • On October 22, Trump announced sanctions on Rosneft and Lukoil and said he may add Iran to punish countries trading with Russia, whose main energy buyers include China, Turkey and the European Union.
  • Applying such sanctions would affect some U.S. allies and ramp up pressure on Russia's struggling economy, while Ukraine and European allies have urged tougher action.
  • International reactions included Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of Russia's security council, warning that the U.S. has "fully taken the road to war with Russia," while Guo Jiakun, Chinese foreign ministry spokesman, urged "dialogue and negotiation" over coercion as many countries continue trading with Russia.
