Senate majority Leader John Thune indicated progress toward bringing a Russia sanctions bill to the Senate floor, which could significantly impact Moscow&#8217;s economy by allowing the U.S. to impose hefty tariffs on countries like China and India that purchase Russian energy. Johnson emphasized that such sanctions require cooperation between Congress and President Donald Trump,who he praised as a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >strong leader capable<\/a> of ending the war in Ukraine. Trump recently set conditions for major sanctions, including urging NATO members to stop buying Russian oil and proposing tariffs on China. The article also notes recent tensions, such as the intrusion of Russian drones into Polish airspace, which triggered a U.N. Security Council meeting.While Trump suggested the drone incursion might have been accidental, military officials believe it was likely intentional. <br \/> <!DOCTYPE html><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Johnson &lsquo;anxious&rsquo; to impose additional sanctions on Russia pending Trump approval<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2229505\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>House Speaker <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/house\/3798009\/johnson-gop-margin-shrink-virginia-special-election-democrats\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mike Johnson<\/a> (R-LA) said Sunday there is a &ldquo;big appetite&rdquo; to apply additional sanctions on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/investigations\/3482784\/russiagate-definitive-timeline-how-new-intelligence-documents-fit-in\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Russia<\/a>, saying these are &ldquo;far overdue.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Senate Majority Leader <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/policy\/foreign-policy\/3803056\/senate-republicans-russia-sanctions-moscow-strike-poland-airspace\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">John Thune<\/a> (R-SD) suggested Wednesday he is getting closer to bringing a Russia sanctions bill to the floor for consideration. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/senate\/3804176\/senate-russia-consideration-sanctions-terrorist-designation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The legislation<\/a> would likely have a sizable effect on Moscow&rsquo;s economy, as it would allow the United States to impose a 500% tariff on countries such as China and India that purchase Russian energy.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/in_focus\/3806292\/proxy-firm-critics-calling-shots-corporate-america\/\">Proxy firm critics say they&rsquo;re calling the shots in corporate America<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/house\/3806869\/california-democrat-trashed-falsely-claiming-kirk-suspect-trump-supporter\/\">California Democrat trashed after falsely claiming Kirk suspect is Trump supporter<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/house\/3805566\/chip-roy-wants-committee-investigating-radical-left-groups-pushing-political-violence\/\">Roy asks to form committee for investigating &#8216;radical left&#8217; groups pushing political violence<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>Johnson said he is &ldquo;anxious&rdquo; to enact these additional sanctions but that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/house\/3803683\/congress-security-protocols-aftermath-charlie-kirk-assassination\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Congress<\/a> can&rsquo;t impose them &ldquo;on its own volition.&rdquo; As such, the sanctions need to be &ldquo;a partnership&rdquo; between President Donald Trump and Congress.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;But we have to defer to the commander in chief.
