The Senate requires trump to sign the bill on sanctions

The Republicans of the house of representatives and the Senate agreed to send the bill to the President's Desk of Donald trump, which will hit Russia with new sanctions.

Majority leader Kevin McCarthy and Chairman of the Senate Committee Bob Corker reached agreement Wednesday on legislation on new sanctions against Russia, Iran and North Korea, according to Corker's. "After very productive discussions with the leader of McCarthy, I am pleased to announce that we have reached an agreement that will allow us to send the bill on sanctions for the presidency," said Corker in a statement.

Press Secretary McCarthy declined to comment on the conversation between the majority leader and Corker. Corker and McCarthy could not come to an agreement about the North Korean part of the bill. Corker did not want to adopt sanctions without giving the Senate the opportunity to make changes in the North Korean part. In accordance with the agreement, the Senate will pass the bill, sending it to the President's Desk. Instead, McCarthy has promised to take on the future of the North Korean sanctions, which will come from the Senate.

Corker added that the review of Congress on North Korean sanctions has been weakened as the legislation on Russian sanctions. The bill, which is expected to be addressed before the Senate goes on break, to tie the hands of Trump, giving the new Congress a veto over any attempt by the administration to lift sanctions against Moscow.

The white house insisted on amending this provision, and trump hasn't said whether he will sign the bill.
