President Donald Trump voiced anger Sunday at Russian President Vladimir Putin for comments he made about Ukraine and its president Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
“If a deal isn’t made, and if I think it was Russia’s fault, I’m going to put secondary sanctions on Russia,” Trump told NBC’s Kristen Welker, adding that there would be “a 25 to 50-point tariff on all oil.”
Russia has effectively rejected a U.S. proposal for an immediate and full 30-day halt in the fighting, and the feasibility of a partial ceasefire on the Black Sea was thrown into doubt after Kremlin negotiators imposed far-reaching conditions.
Well, I’ve lost the plot. When we say he wants no allies left we really mean none huh.
Pretty basic really. People keep calling him a Russian asset, compromise, a puppet of the Kremlin. So, he’ll scream and shout and rattle his plastic saber about how he’s totally going to fight Russia for real in an effort to placate the claims that Russia owns him. He won’t actually do anything of substance against Russia’s interests.
