Republican US Senator Lindsey Graham and Democratic US Senator Chris Van Hollen on Wednesday unveiled an outline for proposed sanctions on Turkey, including targeting the US assets of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and imposing visa restrictions.
The proposed legislation would also impose sanctions on any military transactions with Turkey, set sanctions on anyone who supports Turkey's domestic energy industry for use by its armed forces, prohibit the sale of US defense articles to the Turkey armed forces and define Turkey's purchase of Russia's S-400 missile defense system as "significant" and subject to sanctions.
