Trump signs new Russia sanctions law, opening the door to sweeping tariffs
๐บ๐ธ President Donald Trump has signed H.R. 5334 into law, expanding sanctions on Russia while extending certain measures related to Iran.
๐ The law allows tariffs on Russian imports to rise as high as 500%, while also opening the door to tariffs of up to 100% on goods from certain countries among the largest buyers of Russian oil or gas if they continue making new purchases after the specified deadline.
๐ China and India are being closely watched due to the scale of their Russian energy imports. However, the signing does not mean the maximum tariffs take effect immediately, as specific rates and possible waivers will depend on implementation.
โณ Over the next 30 days, attention will shift to enforcement guidance, the countries covered, and the tariff levels ultimately selected, which will determine the broader impact on trade and energy markets.
