What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Donald Trump signed an executive order delaying the entry into force of a sweeping sanctions package against Russia. This decision was criticized by both Republicans and Democrats in Congress, including Thom Tillis and John Cornyn, who argued that concessions to Russia were irresponsible and counter to US national security interests. The delay does not lift all previously imposed sanctions against Russia.
