What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Donald Trump issued an executive order on October 16, 2026, suspending virtually the entire Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026. This act, which Donald Trump signed into law on September 18, 2026, expanded U.S. sanctions against Russia and introduced new tariff powers targeting Russian energy exports. The executive order effectively neutralized the law's statutory penalties.
