He noted that senators, many of whom have signed a bill on strengthening sanctions against Russia, leave the decision behind him.
“I didn’t talk to them. They have a bill – the solution will be for me, it is my choice. They have made it that way, and it will save a lot of time if it will. So it suits me. I have not decided if I have applied it. It is a very strong bill,” Trump added.
Recall that Senators Richard Blumental (Democrat) and Lindsey Graham (Republican), together with 80 co-authors, have submitted a bill that will provide for additional economic sanctions against Russia for abandoning a truce, including the introduction of 500 percent duties on goods imported from the countries that buy.
There are also support for these sanctions in the House of Representatives.
At the same time, the White House spokeswoman Levitt made it clear that Trump would make the final decision to potentially strengthen sanctions against Russia.
The media also wrote that the Trump administration urged Graham to re -impose sanctional measures against Russia in a bill that has predominant support in the Senate.
