On Saturday, Donald Trump intensified his criticism of the countries buying Russian oil, and the Potus issued a letter to all NATO Member Nations and claimed that the Russian War of Ukraine would “end quickly” if NATO “does what he says”.
“If not, you are just wasting time and time, energy and money of the United States,” Trump wrote about Truth Social.
Trump’s letter comes after his earlier warnings of sanctions against Moscow and secondary sanctions on countries that buy oil such as China and India.
Potus remarks also come days after Russian drones “repeatedly” violated the Polish air space after crossing from neighboring Ukraine, which made the country climbing military nozzles, closing the capital airports in their capital and urging the inhabitants to stay at home. Poland shot down drones and Trump said “it could have been a mistake.”
What did Trump said?
Trump claimed that the war would end if all NATO countries stopped buying oil from Russia and placed tariffs on China 50% to 100% for purchases of Russian oil.
The sweat published on its social media website that NATO’s commitment to win the “much less than 100%” war and the purchase of Russian oil by some members of the alliance is “shocking”.
Trump said in his heavily created letter aimed at a 32 -member state alliance: “It greatly weakens your negotiating position and negotiating power over Russia.”
Which nations NATO buy Russian oil?
According to the Center for Energy and Clean Air Research, NATO member Turkey has been the third largest buyer of Russian oil since 2023 – followed by China and India.
Other nations of NATO members involved in the purchase of Russian oil include Hungary and Slovakia.
On Thursday, the US Ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker made similar demands to Trump and said that Russian military operations in Ukraine were financed from Russian oil sales to countries including India, China and Brazil.
Indian attitude toward the purchase of Russian oil
Despite Trump and his assistant Peter Navarro’s repeated criticism of Indian energy ties with Russia, the new Delhi claimed last month that India would continue to buy Russian brutal – it said that it was driven by the national interest and dynamics of the market.
