❗️Trump waived another set of Russia-related sanctions days before they were due to take effect under the Graham Act. The measures included tariffs of up to 100% on goods imported into the US from the five largest importers of Russian crude oil or gas. Trump told Congress the waiver was in the US national interest but did not specify why. The waiver remains in effect until his administration determines that “further action is appropriate.” The decision drew criticism from both Democratic and Republican lawmakers.
