Senate Passes Sanctions Against Russia | Roanoke News
Description
The Senate just passed a landmark sanctions bill targeting Russia’s energy buyers, a major win for Ukraine and a fitting tribute to Senator Lindsey Graham, whose funeral preceded the vote. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, present in Washington for the service, watched the vote from the gallery and urged stronger U.S. support, declaring Ukraine is now winning the war—not just surviving. The bill slams China and India for buying Russian oil and gas, imposes penalties on Putin and key Russian figures, and includes waivers for nations cutting ties with Moscow. Seen as a moral and economic blow to Putin, it’s a bipartisan effort that could force negotiations—and it’s just the beginning, with amendments expected this week.
