S&P 500 rises as health care, tech gain to overshadow Fed independence concerns
Investing.com - The Kremlin warned Monday that supporters of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham’s proposed Russia sanctions bill should consider how it might affect Ukraine peace negotiations.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov made the remarks when asked about Graham’s Sunday interview with ABC News, in which the senator claimed President Donald Trump had told him the sanctions bill could advance to a vote.
Peskov described Graham as an "inveterate Russophobe," indicating the Kremlin was already familiar with the senator’s position on Russia.
The proposed legislation would impose severe economic penalties on Russia and its trading partners, including 500% tariffs on countries purchasing Russian goods such as oil.
China and India, which import large quantities of Russian oil, would be significantly affected if the bill becomes law.
