Jiri Jicha wrote that the American Congress was preparing a move against Donald Trump's agreement with Vladimir Putin regarding oil, which was meant to block purchases of Russian fuel. Republican Brian Fitzpatrick reportedly announced that he had garnered support from at least 218 members of Congress. According to Jicha, that was enough to initiate a procedure that would allow the proposal to be brought forward for discussion outside the relevant committee and the leadership of the House of Representatives. The initiative, according to Jicha, was intended to ease restrictions on the purchase of Russian fuel, and it faced opposition from representatives of both Republicans and Democrats. He noted that the White House's decision was contrary to Congress's efforts to tighten sanctions pressure on Russia. He added that support for the procedural move did not yet mean that the bill would be approved, but the dispute over Russian fuel in Washington was reportedly intensifying. #Kongres #Rusko #politika (translated)
