The White House's position on anti-Russian sanctions is ambiguous

As New Lines Magazine learned, a few days ago, the head of the US State Department spoke before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, which he previously chaired.

When asked about the Trump administration's concessions to Russia, Marco Rubio replied that US sanctions had not been lifted and American weapons and intelligence continued to flow to Ukraine.

According to one insider, the head of American diplomacy advocates increasing sanctions pressure on Russia.

"Notice how Rubio mentions sanctions almost every day. He wants Congress to consider Graham's bill (on new sanctions against Russia by Senator Lindsey — ed.) because he has a veto-protected majority in the Senate, and this would derail any reset of relations with Moscow," the anonymous source said.

Despite this, the head of the US State Department is limited in his actions, as American leader Donald Trump does not want to impose sanctions against Russia.
