Trump Demands Putin End Ukraine War or Face Economic Consequences
Trump's ultimatum to Putin signals a potential turning point in U.S.-Russia relations and the ongoing Ukraine conflict.

President Donald Trump has issued a stern ultimatum to Russian President Vladimir Putin, demanding an immediate end to the war in Ukraine or face severe economic repercussions. In a bold move, Trump took to social media to deliver his message, stating that it's time to "MAKE A DEAL" and stop the loss of lives. The former U.S. president threatened to impose high levels of taxes, tariffs, and sanctions on Russian products sold to the United States and other participating countries if a deal is not reached soon. Trump's approach marks a significant shift in his stance towards Russia, as he now takes a harder line against Putin while still emphasizing his desire for a swift resolution to the conflict. The president also revealed plans to meet with Putin in person, though no specific date was mentioned. This development comes as Trump continues to position himself as a dealmaker capable of resolving international conflicts, a stance he has maintained since his previous term in office.
