"If (Putin) says no this time, here's what I hope President (Donald) Trump will do: Sign my bill that has 85 co-sponsors and put tariffs on countries like China who buy cheap Russian oil. Make Russia a state sponsor of terrorism for kidnapping 20,000 Ukrainian kids. And most importantly, seize ships that are carrying sanctioned Russian oil like you're doing in Venezuela."
"If Putin says no, we need to dramatically change the game, including giving Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine to hit the drone and missile factories that exist in Russia."
"We keep engaging Russia... and he rebuffs all of our efforts. ...is going to continue to take the Donbas by force until we increase pressure."
Lindsey Graham calls for a dramatic escalation of U.S. pressure on Russia if Vladimir Putin rejects the peace deal. Proposals include a bill with 85 co-sponsors to impose tariffs on countries buying cheap Russian oil, designating Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism over alleged kidnapping of 20,000 Ukrainian children, and seizing ships carrying sanctioned Russian oil. Graham advocates supplying Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine to strike drone and missile factories inside Russia. Graham warns that continued diplomatic engagement without increased pressure will allow Russia to seize more territory in the Donbas by force.
