- US Senate approved sanctions against Russia described as the strongest such move under Trump, passing a bill that targets countries continuing to trade with Moscow.
- India and China, identified as major buyers of Russian oil, could face tariffs under the bill's secondary-country provisions, according to the source.
Why it matters: By threatening tariffs on India and China — Russia's largest oil customers — the bill extends pressure on Moscow through its remaining trade partners rather than relying solely on direct Russian penalties.
