Trump to Putin End War OR Face Tariffs

Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to Vladimir Putin, threatening new trade restrictions against Russia if it does not soon negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine. This statement, made via Truth Social, is Trump's first significant comment on the conflict since his return to the presidency, where he had promised a quick resolution. Trump proposed imposing high taxes, tariffs, and sanctions on Russian goods if no deal is reached, emphasizing his preference for a peaceful solution but readiness for tougher measures. The Biden administration had previously sanctioned Russia heavily after its invasion of Ukraine in 2022, but Trump's team believes there are still effective financial pressures that can be applied, particularly targeting Russia's energy sector. Trump's Treasury secretary nominee, Scott Bessent, supports intensifying these sanctions. Despite Trump's claims of a good relationship with Putin and his intent not to harm Russia but to facilitate peace, there's evident frustration with Moscow's lack of response to peace talks. Trump's special envoy, Keith Kellogg, aims for a resolution within 100 days, although his planned visit to Kyiv was postponed due to the absence of a clear negotiation strategy.Russia's energy sectorGlobal energy marketsmore concise
