Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan said he wants to move a strong bill regarding sanctions on Russia as quickly as possible but that the legislation still faced procedural and policy hurdles, Reuters reported.

“Right now, we have a procedural issue," and Republicans are working with Democrats regarding sending the bill back to the Senate, Ryan told reporters at a news conference.

"There are some policy issues with respect to making sure that we don't actually inadvertently help Russian oligarchs and oil firms."
