The Story in Brief
Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy thanked the US Senate on Friday for passing the Lindsey Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act. In a post on X, he said the law 'helps increase pressure on the aggressor' and would help end Russia's 'insane war' against Ukraine. Deccan Herald reports Zelenskyy expressed gratitude to all US lawmakers who supported the measure. The bill targets Russian energy and financial sectors and also imposes penalties on Iran over its drone sales to Moscow.
The Indian Opinion
Some will claim this bill proves Washington's resolve is unshakeable, but the real test is enforcement. Others will dismiss it as symbolic posturing, yet the act targets Iran's drone supply too. Ukrainians need ammunition, not just applause. Watch whether the Treasury actually designates new entities in the coming weeks, that number, not a tweet, will show if pressure is real.
