PoliticsUS Senate advances Russia sanctions bill after Lindsey Graham's death

The U.S. Senate voted 86-12 to advance a bipartisan Russia sanctions bill championed by the late Senator Lindsey Graham, after his funeral. The revised measure would impose tariffs of up to 100% on major buyers of Russian oil and gas and countries aiding sanctions evasion, while also including sanctions on Iran. President Volodymyr Zelensky called the bill an important signal to Europe and Ukraine.
