Trump dissatisfied with Russia’s escalation in Ukraine and threatens sanctions – media
The White House states that US President Donald Trump is frustrated by the escalation of Russian attacks in Ukraine during his efforts to broker a ceasefire and is threatening sanctions.
This is reported by Axios, Censor.NET informs.
This reaction came after Trump announced on Truth Social about possible sanctions and tariffs against Russia.
This is the first time since Trump took office that he has publicly threatened Russia, compared to his previous softer line towards Vladimir Putin. According to an anonymous White House official, in recent days Trump has become increasingly outraged by the Kremlin's behavior and escalation of attacks in Ukraine, which comes at a time when the US president is calling for a ceasefire.
As noted, Russia's actions, which lead to further casualties and destruction, have been the subject of harsh criticism from Trump, which indicates a change in his attitude towards the Kremlin in the context of the ongoing war in Ukraine.
