Summary
The bill plans to target the Russian hydrocarbon sector by, among other things, imposing tariffs of 500 per cent on imports from Russia, including gas and oil. The text was baptized in tribute to Lindsey Graham, a Republican senator who died on 11 July and who had strongly advocated for new sanctions against Moscow because of his invasion of Ukraine. For the first time, the United States is also targeting Russia's ghost fleet, these ships used by Moscow to circumvent Western embargoes since the invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
Furthermore, However, some elected democrats had alarmed themselves about the new customs duties powers that would be conferred on Donald Trump with this new law. The Trade Representative, Jamieson Greer, finally gave assurances that the tariffs imposed on the top five Russian oil-importing countries would be eliminated for each country graduating from this top 5. In view of the war in Iran, "with an imminent energy crisis and rising pump prices on the eve of the mid-term elections, sanctioning Russia and its trading partners (...) would be extremely counterproductive for the United States themselves," the embassy said in a statement.
In addition, For his sister Darline Graham, who replaced him in the Senate, the final passage of the bill will serve to honor his brother, but will also "fail Putin where it hurts". "This law brings us closer to an end to the conflict" between Russia and Ukraine, assured Republican Senator Jim Risch, chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs. "Run Putin where it hurts": the US Senate adopts new sanctions against Russia, including 500,000 tariffs on gas and oil, to "cut the flow of money that feeds the Russian war machine".
Moreover, American senators adopted on Friday by a very large majority a new package of sanctions against Russia, which targets the oil industry in particular.
