WASHINGTON, (Reuters) – The U.S. House of Representatives voted on Wednesday to ban imports of Russian oil. This was in retaliation against Moscow’s continuing attack on Ukraine.

With the vote still underway, the Democratic-controlled House was poised to pass the bill after President Joe Biden on Tuesday used his executives powers to impose such a ban.
