Graham stated that Trump will support the advancement of a bipartisan bill concerning countries that do business with Russia. A vote on this issue is expected to take place as early as next week.
He also noted that the President urged the Senate to expedite work on the bill, which proposes "devastating" sanctions against the Russian Federation. This request was made by Trump to Senate Republican leader John Thune during their joint golf game.
Lindsey Graham emphasized the importance of adopting this document to create "leverage" in negotiations with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
