Rubio: Trump needs up to 60 days to review Russia sanctions

President Donald Trump has not made a final decision on sanctions and tariffs related to Russian exports, one day after issuing exemptions, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying up to 60 days are needed for review. Rubio stated the president will use the period to analyze the economic impact of the sanctions and tariffs on the global and U.S. economies. The exemptions came weeks before November midterm elections, amid pressure over high energy prices linked to the Iran war. The Friday executive order exempted measures under the Graham Act, which included tariffs on Russian goods and sanctions on buyers of Russian oil and gas. Ukrainian President Zelensky criticized the move, while Senator Darlene Graham said she disagrees and will discuss it with Trump.
