U.S. lawmaker submits amendment naming India in Russia sanctions act

The article details amendments to a U.S. Russia sanctions Bill. One amendment, proposed by Congressman Steny Hoyer, seeks to explicitly name India, China, and other top trading partners of Russia as targets for 100% tariffs. Another amendment, moved by Congressman Gregory Meeks, aims to scrap the section authorizing such broad secondary tariffs or allow the President to waive them. The Bill, passed by the U.S. Senate, intends to sanction Russia's leadership, energy sector, and 'shadow fleet' to cut off funding for the war against Ukraine, with the House of Representatives needing to pass it before it goes to the President.
