Russia calls Trump's decision to halt congressional sanctions a "historic moment"
Americas2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported1h ago
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday to temporarily suspend a broad package of sanctions against Russia previously approved by the U.S. Congress. The administration justified the move by citing national interest, asserting that the suspension is necessary despite the legislative mandate for the sanctions.
Kiril Dmítriev, an emissary for the Kremlin, characterized the decision as a "historic moment" for U.S.-Russia relations. The suspension marks a significant divergence between the executive branch's current policy and the legislative actions taken by Congress regarding the enforcement of sanctions.
