基辅，8月26日（路透社）—— 牵头起草一份针对俄罗斯的全面制裁法案的美国参议员周三表示，他对该法案下月能在众议院获得通过充满信心，并称该法案将成为打击弗拉基米尔·普京为乌克兰战争筹措资金的“大锤”。
来自康涅狄格州的民主党参议员理查德·布卢门撒尔在访问基辅期间会见了乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基和高级官员。他表示，该法案在上个月参议院初步投票中轻松通过后，目前在众议院获得了共和党人的强力支持。

“普京只看得懂强力手段，”布卢门撒尔在新闻发布会上说。“这份俄罗斯制裁法案就是一把大锤，能够施加普京能够理解的那种压力。”
尽管民主党人普遍支持这项制裁法案，但部分议员担忧，该法案会给共和党籍总统唐纳德·特朗普留下额外加征关税的空间，包括对美国盟友征收关税。
该法案将制裁俄罗斯高级官员，并允许特朗普对包括中国和印度在内的俄罗斯石油和天然气最大买家征收高达100%的关税，以切断莫斯科的资金流入渠道。
布卢门撒尔表示，法案中的豁免条款将使欧洲盟友免受关税制裁，这缓解了一些民主党议员的担忧。

布卢门撒尔称，他已请求泽连斯基游说众议院议员支持该法案通过。
上月该法案在参议院投票当天，恰逢法案共同发起人、已故参议员林赛·格雷厄姆的葬礼。泽连斯基当时在华盛顿与多名参议员举行了会谈。
布卢门撒尔表示，泽连斯基“热忱且爽快地”同意了他的请求。乌克兰总统办公室未立即回应置评请求。

KYIV, Aug 26 (Reuters) – A U.S. senator sponsoring a bill for wide-ranging sanctions on Russia said on Wednesday he was hopeful it would pass the House of Representatives next month, and be a “sledgehammer” to President Vladimir Putin’s efforts to fund his war in Ukraine.
Senator Richard Blumenthal, a Democrat from Connecticut who met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and senior officials during a visit to Kyiv, said the bill had strong Republican support in the House, after comfortably passing an initial Senate vote last month.

“Putin understands only force,” Blumenthal told a news conference. “And the Russia sanctions bill is a sledgehammer that can have the kind of force Putin understands.”
Though Democrats are broadly supportive of the sanctions, some have expressed concern that it would give Republican President Donald Trump leeway to impose additional tariffs, including on U.S. allies.
The bill would sanction top Russian officials and allow Trump to set tariffs of up to 100% on the top buyers of Russia’s oil and gas, which include China and India, in an effort to stem revenue flows to Moscow.
Blumenthal said exemptions in the bill would spare European allies from the imposition of tariffs, allaying concerns raised by some Democratic legislators.

Blumenthal said he had asked Zelenskiy to lobby members of the House of Representatives to support its passage.
Zelenskiy spoke to several senators in Washington last month ahead of the vote on the bill, which took place on the day of the funeral of its co-author, the late Senator Lindsey Graham.
Blumenthal said Zelenskiy had “heartily and readily agreed” to his request. Ukraine’s presidency did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
