The US House of Representatives has passed a sweeping sanctions and tariff bill aimed at increasing economic pressure on Russia over its conflict with Ukraine.
The Republican-majority House voted 262 to 159 in favor of the measure.
The bill will now be sent to Donald Trump’s desk for signing.
In response, The Kremlin said that further US sanctions against Russia would complicate efforts to find a peace deal in Ukraine.
