President Donald Trump is backing a revised version of the late Sen.
Lindsey Graham’s Russia sanctions bill, giving fresh momentum to legislation that would impose tariffs of at least 500% on countries buying Russian energy.
Trump Backs Graham Russia Sanctions Bill According to a report by CNN on Monday, citing a White House official who provided no further details, the bill, known as the Sanctioning Russia Act of 2025, would impose sanctions if Russia refuses to negotiate peace with Ukraine, violates a deal, launches another invasion or tries to subvert Ukraine’s government.
Congress says the measure would raise duties to at least 500% on Russian imports and on goods from countries that knowingly engage in the exchange of Russian-origin uranium and petroleum products.
Senators Push Sanctions Measure As Memorial The push follows a July 10 announcement from Sens.
