US advances Russia sanctions bill: will Trump impose 100% tariffs on India? | Putin, Ukraine War

Could India face tariffs of up to 100% on its exports to the United States over its purchases of Russian oil? A sweeping Russia sanctions bill moving through the US Congress could give President Donald Trump the authority to impose tariffs of up to 100% on countries that continue buying Russian crude oil or natural gas. The Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 cleared a key procedural hurdle in the US House on September 15, with a 214-211 vote. The Senate had already passed the legislation by 86-11 on August 7. The House vote was not final passage, and the bill still needs to clear the chamber before it can reach Trump’s desk.
