US President Donald Trump signed the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 into law on Friday. This new legislation expands economic measures against Russia, including statutory sanctions and tariff authorities, and extends existing sanctions on Iran for five years. The White House stated the law aims to strengthen the president's ability to pressure Russia towards a negotiated end to the war in Ukraine. The sanctions target Russia's energy and defense industries, its "shadow fleet" of tankers, President Vladimir Putin, senior Kremlin officials, financial institutions, and state-owned companies. It also authorizes tariffs of up to 100% on buyers of Russian energy like China or India to reduce their reliance on Russian oil and gas.
