What happened
President Donald Trump has signed a law introducing a broad package of sanctions targeting Russia. The legislation, known as the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026, was introduced in the House of Representatives. The sanctions apply to Russian officials, banks including Gazprombank, and the country's central bank.
