The Senate “has to wait a little” with sanctions against the Russian Federation, but that doesn’t mean they forgot about them, said Senator Lindsay Graham.
The US Senate postponed the considering the bill on strict sanctions against Russia somehow to July for the worsening of the conflict between Iran and Israel, which is now a priority for Washington. SEMAFOR reported it.
Senators Lindsay Graham and Richard Blumental are concentrated in the processed version of their bill, to protect Ukraine’s allies from some penalties for trade with Russia and make other technical changes. But their hope that the bill was adopted by the Senate this month, as other priorities emerged.
The Republican Party leaders want President Donald Trump’s bill on next week’s taxes and costs, and Iran pushes the American leader into the line of direct military conflict.
The leader of the majority of Senate John Tong, a member of the Republican Party, said July provides a consideration of the sanctions against Russia is the most likely today.
In this regard, Graham said the Senate would “have to wait a little” with sanctions against Russia, without calling specific deadlines.
“Now the situation in Iran is changing. It does not mean that I have forgotten about Russia or Ukraine. There is nothing. (But) Iran is at attention,” the senator said.
As we have written, Great Britain has announced the introduction of new sanctions against Russia over military invasion against Ukraine.
