According to Sputnik, citing a letter from Congressmen Eliot Engel and Michael McCaul, politicians are “deeply concerned that no sanctions were imposed on Russia, as required by US law.”
“We urge you to immediately impose legally sanctioned additional measures against Russia in order to hold her accountable for such insolent behavior,” the message from members of Congress says.
Earlier, a group of American congressmen introduced a bill to the House of Representatives, imposing sanctions against 24 representatives of the FSB of Russia in response to the arrest of 24 Ukrainian sailors after the incident in the Kerch Strait.
