Jeanne Shaheen and Roger Wicker urged the Trump administration to move faster on enforcing the Russian sanctions law, including measures targeting oil shipping and financial networks. They said its main provisions are due to take effect October 18. Left-leaning outlets emphasize the sanctions’ stakes for Ukraine, warning that delays could leave Russia resources to sustain its war.
