Trump signs a Russia and Iran sanctions act

President Donald Trump has signed the Lindsey O Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026. The act authorizes expanded sanctions, tariffs, and prohibitions on Russia. It also extends existing sanctions on Iran. The extension of those Iran sanctions runs until 2031.

The signing is a United States action during the period of sanctions tied to the Russian war in Ukraine. The same act also deals with Iran. Trump is the president who signed it. The year in the act title is 2026.

The Russia portion is described as expanded sanctions, tariffs, and prohibitions. Those three tools are the ones named for Russia. The Iran portion is described as an extension of sanctions that already existed. The end point given for that extension is 2031.

The act title includes the name Lindsey O Graham. The two countries named in the title and in the signing report are Russia and Iran. No other country is added as a target in that signing report. The presidential signature is the action that was reported.

Sanctions, tariffs, and prohibitions are listed together for the Russia authority. The report does not itemize a tariff percentage inside the signing notice itself. It does state that the authority includes tariffs. It likewise states that the Iran sanctions are extended rather than newly invented in the description.

The recorded outcome is the signature of the named act. The Russia effect described is broader authority for sanctions, tariffs, and prohibitions. The Iran effect described is continuation of existing sanctions through 2031. Those are the terms attached to the signing.
