U.S. President Donald Trump says Republicans should add Iran to a sanctions bill aimed at Russia. Reuters reports that Trump made the suggestion on Sunday, calling it a step Republicans could take within the existing legislative effort to impose or extend sanctions related to Russia. Other coverage reflects the same core message: Trump points to a prior position associated with the late Senator Lindsey Graham, saying the change is what Graham “wanted to do.” The reports do not include details of the specific bill text, the timing of any amendment, or whether lawmakers would support the proposal. They also do not describe how adding Iran would change the scope or enforcement of the sanctions beyond the stated aim of linking Iran to the Russian sanctions legislation. Overall, the outlets agree that Trump is urging a legislative amendment that would incorporate Iran into an otherwise Russia-focused sanctions package.
