In a high-stakes legislative battle, the US House of Representatives has moved a Russia sanction bill to a final vote. This bill could authorise US President Donald Trump to impose tariffs of up to 100% on multiple countries, including India, for buying Russian oil and gas. Co-authored by the late Lindsey Graham, the South Carolina senator who passed away earlier this year, it would allow Trump to expand his secondary tariff authority amid Russia’s ongoing war on Ukraine.
