Trump may veto sanctions and negotiate tougher deal against Russia - Reuters

"U.S. President Donald Trump could veto pending legislation that would slap new sanctions on Russia in order to push for a tougher deal, a top White House aide said on Thursday," Reuters recently reported.

Key quotes (via Reuters):

• The sanctions, which the U.S. House of Representatives has approved, need to pass in the Senate too before going to Trump's desk to sign or veto
• White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci, "he may sign the sanctions exactly the way they are or he may veto the sanctions and negotiate an even tougher deal against the Russians," told CNN.
