EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has aligned with US Senator Lindsey Graham to impose tougher sanctions on Russia. This collaboration aims to increase economic pressure on the Kremlin to negotiate peace in Ukraine.
The proposed US Senate bill, supported by both Republicans and Democrats, suggests hefty tariffs on countries importing Russian fossil fuels, potentially impacting EU nations dependent on Russian energy. Despite initial reluctance, there is optimism that US President Donald Trump might back the sanctions, especially with bipartisan support.
The EU is also preparing its 18th sanctions package against Russia. The plan includes significant economic measures against nations like China and India, who continue to trade with Russia.
This coordinated transatlantic effort reflects a united stance to compel Russia to cease its aggression in Ukraine.
