The United States Congress has approved a sweeping new sanctions bill aimed at increasing pressure on Russia over its war in Ukraine. Lawmakers passed the legislation on Wednesday following months of delay, sending the measure to President Donald Trump to be signed into law.
The legislation specifically targets Russia's critical energy and defense industries. In addition, the measures take aim at the country's "shadow fleet" of tankers designed to evade existing international restrictions.
