The US Senate on Friday passed a sweeping Russia sanctions package that will allow President Donald Trump to impose 100% tariffs on the world's top five buyers of Russian oil and gas, a list that puts India and China among the countries directly affected.
The bipartisan bill passed 86-11 and caps a year-long campaign by the late Senator Lindsey Graham to reinforce US support for Ukraine and pressure President Vladimir Putin as the war, now longer than World War I, continues. The bill has since been renamed the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026.
