US Senator Jeanne Shaheen hopes to deliver a 'strong message' to Moscow when she introduces new sanctions against Russia at a Senate Committee meeting on Thursday, Shaheen's spokesman Ryan Nickel said on Wednesday, APA reports quoting sputniknews.
"The foot-dragging on Russian sanctions has gone on long enough," Nickel told Politico. "There’s bipartisan agreement that it’s past time for the Senate to deliver a strong message to the Kremlin."
Shaheen wants to add the sanctions as amendments on a bill for new sanctions against Iran, but the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Corker is expected to block them, the newspaper added.
