Trump is 3 weeks late on Russia sanctions

Trump has stalled tougher sanctions on Russia imposed by Congress. The administration is now more than 3 weeks late on a deadline to begin implementing the new restrictions.
There has been no explanation given for the delay, and lawmakers are growing impatient. Yesterday John McCain warned: "If they don’t cooperate, then further actions need to be taken." Earlier this year the White House also tried to scuttle the sanctions as they made their way through Congress with strong bipartisan support.
Trump's willingness to serve Russian interests -- even in defiance of Congress -- should concern every American. It has almost been a year since the election and his coziness with Putin remains the same. Your thoughts?
The president had 60 days to at least develop a plan of action on new sanctions but is three weeks behind Congress's order.
