US Republicans threaten to block $350 billion Pentagon funding over Russia pressure
Original: Республіканці в Конгресі США погрожують заблокувати $350 млрд для Пентагону, якщо Трамп не посилить тиск на росію, — The
Republicans in the US Congress are threatening to block a $350 billion Pentagon funding bill unless President Trump increases pressure on Russia, The Hill reports.
