Sanctions Loom as Trump Pressures Putin for Peace
President Donald Trump has warned Russian President Vladimir Putin that the United States will impose significant economic sanctions if Russia does not agree to a proposed 30-day ceasefire in the ongoing conflict with Ukraine.
Trump emphasized that while he does not seek to harm the Russian economy, he is prepared to take decisive action if necessary.
U.S. officials are scheduled to meet with President Putin later this week to discuss the ceasefire proposal, which has been jointly backed by both Washington and Kyiv. The outcome of these discussions will be pivotal in determining the future course of the conflict and the international community’s response.
