Special emphasis is planned to be placed on restrictions for Russian oil companies.”, — write on: unn.ua
If any officials in the Russian Federation are watching these hearings, they should know that if I am confirmed, and if President Trump asks for it as part of his strategy to end the war in Ukraine, I will 100% support increased sanctions
