US Sanctions Bill May Hamper Ukraine Talks

TASS · world

The Kremlin has warned that a new US sanctions bill could hinder Ukraine talks, as Russian voters head to the polls. The US House of Representatives approved the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act on September 16. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated on Thursday that the bill would only impede the Ukrainian settlement process if enacted. Analysts suggest the White House may use the sanctions as a pressure tool, potentially.
