What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

President Donald Trump signed a law authorizing the imposition of punitive tariffs of up to 100% on purchases of Russian oil and gas. These tariffs apply to China, India, and other countries involved in the purchases. The law was signed while Lindsey Graham introduced sanctions, escalating trade tensions with Beijing. The Kremlin stated that the tariffs would act as secondary sanctions and that Russia's trading partners unanimously reject them.
