Trump Suspends Graham Act Russia Sanctions Before They Take Effect

US President Donald Trump issued a decree suspending sanctions and tariffs against Russia under the Graham Act, a package he signed in mid-September that was set to take effect 30 days later. Trump cited the "national interest" of the United States, with reports linking the move to a deal for Russia to supply more than 300,000 tons of diesel amid high US fuel prices before midterm elections. The law would have targeted Russia's energy sector, Putin and military officials, and the five largest buyers of Russian energy. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky indicated he felt betrayed, as US-Ukraine ties worsened.
