The US Senate is preparing to implement stringent sanctions against Russia if President Vladimir Putin neglects ceasefire negotiations with Ukraine. Republican leaders, including Senator Lindsey Graham, indicate swift legislative action is possible, backed by over 80 senators. The proposed sanctions include a hefty tariff on imports from nations purchasing Russian oil and restrictions on US citizens buying Russian debt. Despite cautions from the Trump administration about escalating tensions, the Senate appears poised to react if diplomatic efforts falter.
