US President Donald Trump has signed a bill authorizing new sanctions targeting Russia's energy and defense sectors, following congressional approval earlier this week. The legislation aims to increase pressure on Moscow over its ongoing war in Ukraine.
The sanctions package focuses on key revenue sources for the Russian government, including energy exports and arms production. Details on specific entities and enforcement mechanisms have not been fully disclosed.
The bill received bipartisan support in Congress before being sent to the White House. The signing marks a continuation of US efforts to counter Russian aggression through economic measures.
Russia has not yet issued a formal response to the new sanctions. The effectiveness of such measures remains a subject of debate among analysts.
