Trump is ready to sign a law on sanctions for cooperation with Russia if he has the last word in making decisions on restrictions, Reuters reports, citing a senior White House official.
"It has always been important for the White House and the president that there be a provision in the sanctions package that guarantees the president the right to make a final decision on sanctions," his words are quoted in the material.
The source noted that Trump will sign the bill in this form if the corresponding condition is taken into account.
Earlier, the US president supported the bill on sanctions against Russia being promoted in the US Congress, which implies the introduction of restrictions against any country that will buy Russian oil and do business with Moscow. He also admitted that this document will include a ban on cooperation with Iran.
At the end of October, the Republican leader in In the US Senate, John Thune announced his readiness to put to the vote a bill on new sanctions against Russia when the White House administration deems it necessary.
