Capitol Hill Moves to Punish Russian Escalation With New Sanctions | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

As Russian forces continue to violate NATO airspace and launch drone incursions into Poland, Romania, and Estonia, U.S. lawmakers on Capitol Hill are calling for swift and severe sanctions. A bipartisan sanctions bill targets Russia’s energy sector and imposes tariffs on countries that continue to buy Russian energy, such as China and India. The bill has the support of 85 senators. Meanwhile, President Trump has signaled interest in the legislation, as members of Congress urge global unity to confront Putin’s attempts to reconstruct the Russian Empire.
