Trump threatens Russia with tariffs if war on Ukraine isn’t resolved

President Donald Trump said Monday he would punish Russia with “biting” tariffs if there isn’t a deal to end the war in Ukraine within 50 days. He made the announcement during an Oval Office meeting with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte. Trump also said NATO members will purchase “billions and billions” of dollars in U.S. weaponry including Patriot missiles and transfer the munitions to Ukraine under a new deal to support Kyiv in defending itself against Russia.
