Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026, hours after the funeral of the senator it is named for. The bill <a href=\"https:\/\/visegradinsight.eu\/grahams-sanctioning-russia-act-opens-a-window-of-opportunity-for-cee\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">imposes<\/a> primary and secondary sanctions on Russian officials, oligarchs, banks and the shadow fleet, and allows the president to impose targeted tariffs on the five largest importers of Russian crude oil or gas and the five states most active in sanctions evasion. It also extends Iranian energy and weapons sanctions to 2031. The House adjourned until 31 August, so the Act cannot reach US President Donald Trump\u2019s desk before September.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<a class=\"level-link active\" href=\"https:\/\/visegradinsight.eu\/membership-checkout\/?level=12\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u20ac6\/month<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\tFull access to articles and all reports in PDFWeekly outlook on democratic security in CEE delivered by e-mailWeekly newsletter with essential highlightsInvitations to all Visegrad Insight events online and offline<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<a class=\"level-link\" href=\"https:\/\/visegradinsight.eu\/membership-checkout\/?level=11\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u20ac60\/year<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\tIndividual subscribers only.
