Graham Challenges Russia's Sanctions "Immunity" Claims
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham responded to the Russian government's claims of "immunity" from US sanctions, saying that Trump is changing the rules of the game.
The Gaze reports on it, referring to Lindsey Graham on the social media platform X.
“Russia, you are right when it comes to sanctions. You have been able to avoid them and you have learned to live with them,” wrote Graham, alluding to Russia's position that it is supposedly resistant to sanctions.
“Apparently, what you don’t understand is that President Trump is changing the game and he is going to put tariffs on countries who buy your oil and gas, propping up your war machine,” added the republican senator.
He remarked that it might be wise for Russia to consult with those nations soon to ascertain if their stance is as casual as the one expressed.
Lindsey Graham also indicated that a substantial bipartisan majority stands prepared to assist President Trump in these efforts.
