Senate debates Russia sanctions amid Trump's evolving approach
TL;DR Summary
Senate Republicans left for recess without passing a major Russia sanctions bill, leaving President Trump with broad discretion to impose tariffs on countries importing Russian oil, including a 25% tariff on India, as tensions over Ukraine and Russia's actions escalate. Trump has expressed frustration with Putin's refusal to deescalate, and some senators believe the U.S. missed an opportunity to strengthen sanctions against Russia.
