The top Democrat and Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Monday called on President Donald Trump to impose congressionally mandated sanctions on Russia for its poisoning of an ex-spy in the United Kingdom in March 2018.
The Chemical and Biological Weapons Control and Warfare Elimination Act of 1991"mandated the second round of sanctions to be imposed within three months, yet well over a year has passed since the attack. Therefore, we urge you to take immediate action to hold Russia fully accountable for its blatant use of a chemical weapon in Europe," Reps. Eliot Engel, a New York Democrat, and Michael McCaul, a Texas Republican, wrote.
