Congress Advances Sweeping Sanctions Bill Against Russia Amid International Concerns
The U.S. Congress has passed a significant sanctions bill targeting Russia, with the House sending the legislation to President Trump for approval. The bill, which has garnered attention for its potential to impose up to 100% tariffs on imports of Russian oil, has raised concerns in India, where officials warn that such tariffs could damage bilateral relations. Lawmakers expressed apprehensions about granting the president substantial power over tariffs, especially amid growing tensions with Russia. The bipartisan support for this legislation marks a decisive move to increase economic pressure on Moscow, while also potentially straining ties with key energy partners like India and China.
