The White House may soon impose serious sanctions against Russia, and punitive tariffs against couries that buy Russian oil and gas if Moscow refuses to eer peace talks with Ukraine.
Senator Lindsi Graham, one of the main allies of US Preside Donald Trump, has announced that he has gained sufficie support to approve his plan to force Russian Preside Vladimir Putin to eer Kiev negotiations.

Graham, poiing out that the plan was “to help the Preside adopted” added that all these measures against Russia would be “bold”.
“Trump is unhappy with the existing stalemate,” he said. I wa the end of the war through a respectful and just negotiation. “I think Trump is the best person to achieve this goal, but these sanctions represe the Senate’s view that blames Russia for the main culprit.”
“If he was to play Trump, he makes a big mistake; So the bill is a tool in the Trump toolbox. “
“When Trump feels we have come to a deadlock, then you have to wait for these actions,” he said.
The plan, called the “Russian Sanctions Act”, will impose sanctions on Moscow if Moscow refuses to negotiate peace, violating the peace agreeme or attacking Ukraine in the future.
Graham predicted that his plan would have at least 5 supporters in the Senate by the end of the week. He also said that support for the project has increased in rece weeks following Russian attacks on civilians in Ukraine.
Graham’s office claimed that these tariffs would probably have the most impact on couries such as India, China and Iran, and may affect some European partners who coinue to buy Russian goods.
