Trump threatens tariffs on Russian imports to the US over war in Ukraine
Trump demands Putin cut a deal to end Ukraine war or face tariffs on Russian imports to the US
President Donald Trump threatened tariffs on Russian imports to the U.S. if a deal isn't struck soon to end the war in Ukraine.
"I’m not looking to hurt Russia. I love the Russian people, and always had a very good relationship with President Putin - and this despite the Radical Left’s Russia, Russia, Russia HOAX," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "We must never forget that Russia helped us win the Second World War, losing almost 60,000,000 lives in the process."
Trump continued, "All of that being said, I’m going to do Russia, whose Economy is failing, and President Putin, a very big FAVOR. Settle now, and STOP this ridiculous War! IT’S ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE. If we don’t make a ‘deal,’ and soon, I have no other choice but to put high levels of Taxes, Tariffs, and Sanctions on anything being sold by Russia to the United States, and various other participating countries."
