Tensions between the U.S. and Russia have escalated since the U.S. Congress passed the sanctions last week. Moscow later ordered the U.S. Embassy to slash its diplomatic staff by hundreds of people in response.
Reacting to the news of the signing, the head of the Russian Federation Council’s international affairs committee Konstantin Kosachyov, wrote on Facebook that the only news was that Trump had “surrended” to pressure from the U.S. Congress, The Moscow Times reports this morning.
