Sharjah24 – AFP: The US Congress voted Thursday to end normal trade relations with Moscow, as the White House ratcheted up pressure on President Vladimir Putin over the war.
The legislation -- which also applies to Russia's ally Belarus and enables President Joe Biden to inflict steep tariff hikes on imports -- passed the Senate unanimously before being rubber-stamped by the House of Representatives.
