Russia warns new U.S. sanctions law could undermine Trump peace efforts

President Trump signed the Graham-named sanctions legislation but retains broad waiver authority, signaling a potential gap between legislative intent and executive action. Russia's warning highlights the risk that the law could complicate ongoing U.S.-Russia diplomatic engagement, though the waiver provision may allow Trump to preserve his peace initiative. The actual impact depends on how aggressively the administration enforces or waives the sanctions.
