US Senator Lindsey Graham says that if Putin rejects achieving an outcome in the ongoing ceasefire negotiations, the US should “dramatically” step up pressure on Russia and supply Ukraine with Tomahawk cruise missiles. “If [Putin] says no this time, here’s what I hope President Trump will do: Sign my bill that has 85 cosponsors and put tariffs on countries like China who buy cheap Russian oil. Make Russia a state sponsor of terrorism for kidnapping 20,000 Ukrainian kids. And most importantly, seize ships that are carrying sanctioned Russian oil like you’re doing in Venezuela,” Trump’s fellow Republican told NBC’s Meet the Press.
