The Senate of the United States Congress is preparing next week to pass a bill toughening sanctions against the Russian Federation.

"A bill will be adopted that will punish Russia for interfering in our elections. We are going to punish Russians. Any member of Congress who does not want to punish Russia for what they did - betrays democracy. ", He said.

At the same time, Graham also accused the Russian government of supplying arms to the Taliban for the killing of American soldiers. In addition, the senator stressed that the Kremlin had conspired with Syrian President Bashar Assad, which gave him the opportunity to preserve chemical weapons.

Also, Graham expressed confidence that US President Donald Trump will sign a consultative bill.

"If not, we are going to overcome his veto. We will never begin to restore our relations with Russia unless they are punished for attempting to destroy democracy. And this should begin with tightening of sanctions, "the senator summed up..
