The U.S. Congress has sent a strong message to Russia for its annexation
of Crimea by passing measures that give aid to Ukraine and penalize
Moscow.
Lawmakers in the House and the Senate overwhelmingly approved separate measures on Thursday.
Both bills include $1 billion in loan guarantees to Ukraine and penalize Russia for its actions in Crimea.
Lawmakers in both chambers will have to resolve differences on other provisions before sending a final bill to President Barack Obama.
