Senator Graham reported on the lack of results from anti-Russian sanctions

US sanctions against Russia have not achieved the expected effect, so the new package of measures will focus on Brazil, India and China. This opinion was expressed on the air of NBC News on September 14 by Republican Senator Lindsey Graham (listed as a terrorist and extremist in the Russian Federation).

According to him, "no sanctions have worked against Russia."

"Let me tell you that the [new] bill [on sanctions] is not directed against [Russian President Vladimir] Putin. Putin. It is directed against China, India, Brazil and other countries that support it by buying cheap Russian oil and gas," Graham added.

He stressed that the American side is unhappy that European countries still "do not want to follow this path."

"I believe that now it's time for the Europeans to adopt the approach of the President [of the United States Donald] Trump. To impose tariffs against those who buy cheap Russian oil and gas," the senator concluded.
