Summary
United States senators announced on Friday 10 that they received the White House's endorsement to advance Congress with new sanctions on hydrocarbons produced by Russia, measures that so far were blocked by Donald Trump. “We are proud to announce that we have reached an agreement with the Trump government to implement our updated draft law on sanctions against Russia,” said Senators Lindsey Graham and Roger Wicker, Republicans, as well as Richard Blumenthal and Jeanne Shaheen, Democrats. “The moment Russia intensifies its civilian massacre, it is imperative that the Legislative and Executive powers work together to create instruments that impose a high cost to those who buy Russian oil and gas and feed [Russian President Vladimir] Putin’s] war machine,” the MPs added, declaring themselves “very satisfied with these significant advances.”. In recent months, the United States had suspended some sanctions imposed on Russian oil after the invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. In May 2025, more than 80 US senators supported a bill to impose new sanctions against Moscow, citing what they considered Moscow's unwillingness to end the war in Ukraine.
