Trump supports bill sanctioning China, India for Russian oil: US senator

President Donald Trump has supported a bipartisan bill, proposed by Senator Lindsey Graham, to impose sanctions on countries purchasing Russian oil, such as China and India, allowing tariffs up to 500 percent on imports from those nations. The aim is to cut off financing for Russian President Vladimir Putin’s actions in Ukraine. The bill is seen as a way to pressure countries like China, India, and Brazil to stop buying Russian oil. This development comes amidst ongoing negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, with the US showing support for European security guarantees for Ukraine.
