US President Donald Trump said he was shortening the timeline for Russian President Vladimir Putin to agree to the ceasefire with Ukraine, and warned that this could lead to economic consequences.
This step means a significant escalation of pressure on Moscow to end the ongoing conflict. “I’ll make a new term about 10, 10 or 12 days from today,” Trump told reporters in Scotland on Monday during interviews with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, as Bloomberg says.
“I’ll announce it tonight or tomorrow,” Trump added. “But there is no reason to wait. If you know what the answer is,” Frustration expresses from Putin for rejecting previous truce calls.

The end of the conflict proved to be elusive to the US President who, as a candidate, promised to quickly resolve the war of Russia-Ura, as well as the one between Israel and Hamas.
Trump announced his ultimatum to Putin, originally set a 50 -day deadline of July 14, which expires 2 September, stop the war in Ukraine or to face serious economic sanctions. Trump has now signaled a shorter timeline, without a shorter timeline, without a shorter timeline.

The Kremlin must still respond publicly to the updated term. After the announcement of Trump, the Russian ruble dropped by 2%and dropped below 81 per dollar-weakest point since mid-May, Bloomberg informed.
Oil prices also climbed to concern that rising tensions in US-Russia could disrupt global raw reserves.
“What I do is that we do secondary sanctions if we do not make an agreement, and we can agree, I do not know,” Trump added on Monday.
Trump intensified pressure on Putin and expressed growing frustration over the stopped efforts to end the war in Ukraine.
“I’m not interested in talking,” Trump said on Monday. “They speak. We have such nice conversations, such respectable and nice conversations, and then people will die the next night with a rocket in the city.”
Trump, who returned to the office and promised a rapid resolution of the conflict, has not seen any progress, because Moscow continues to require extensive territorial concessions and rejects direct negotiations with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

At the beginning of this month, Trump said he would deposit 100% of the tariffs if the fighting did not stop. Officials occupied secondary fees that would fall on countries that buy Russian exports such as oil. Washington and other capital cities have joined with Kievsky’s view of oil purchases such as a form of silent support for Russia, helping to strengthen its economy and undermine sanctions.
I will make a new term about 10, 10 or 12 days from today.
In the past, however, Trump threatened the economic consequences against Putin, but a remake, suggesting that he wants to maintain space for action.
