RoydadNaft – <\/a><\/span>\u00a0The Republican representative from Pennsylvania said a bipartisan bill has been introduced in Congress to ban purchases of Russian oil, in reaction to Trump\u2019s recent approval of 300,000 tons of diesel imports from Moscow and amid wide political criticism.<\/p>\n

According to Roydad Naft, Brian Fitzpatrick, a Republican from Pennsylvania, said he intends to introduce a bipartisan bill to stop President Donald Trump from lifting Russian oil sanctions amid a global fuel shortage.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will introduce a bipartisan bill to prevent any purchase of Russian oil,\u201d Fitzpatrick wrote on social media. \u201cThe bill will be called the Ronald Reagan Act: Peace Through Strength.\u201d<\/p>\n

It is not yet clear which Democratic representatives will back the bill.<\/p>\n

He also said he will force a vote using a discharge petition, a method to compel the House to vote on a bill that is not on the agenda, and he believes the bill will pass by a solid majority.<\/p>\n

Don Bacon, a Republican from Nebraska, wrote on social media that he had already agreed to join as an original co-sponsor, because Congress must state its position.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s approval, announced on Friday, October 9, 2026, allows Russia to supply 300,000 tons of diesel to the United States and the global market. Russian President Vladimir Putin, in a statement reported by Russian state media, said Moscow has confirmed its readiness to supply oil and petroleum products for the United States and world markets.<\/p>\n

The deal drew a negative reaction from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who warned that it shows Russia it can continue its attacks. Trump told reporters in response that Zelensky could have ended this war many times but chose not to. The U.S. president added that he suggests Ukraine choose a new leader who can reach a deal.<\/p>\n

The agreement has also faced sharp criticism from members of Congress.<\/p>\n

Gabe Amo, a Democrat from Rhode Island and a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, wrote on social media that after signing a law to tighten sanctions on Russia, Trump is now paying Putin for oil to counter high gasoline prices caused by a war he himself launched against Iran. This is not punishing Putin, he added. It is profiting him.<\/p>\n

In 2022, Congress passed a bill banning imports of Russian oil and authorizing further sanctions. The law included an exception allowing the president to permit energy imports bought before the law was passed, or to allow imports when they were in the national interest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Republican representative from Pennsylvania said a bipartisan bill has been introduced in Congress to ban purchases of Russian oil, in reaction to Trump\u2019s recent approval of 300,000 tons of diesel imports from Moscow and amid wide political criticism.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":19147,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47,46,36,19,16,42,35],"tags":[],"services":[],"class_list":["post-19146","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breaking-news","category-international","category-lastnews","category-news","category-oil","category-politics","category-topnews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19146","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19146"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19146\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19148,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19146\/revisions\/19148"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19147"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19146"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19146"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19146"},{"taxonomy":"services","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/services?post=19146"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
