United said that President Donald Trump warned on Friday against secondary sanctions for Russia at the Ukrainian War, reported Reuters.
Trump, as quoted by Reuters, spoke to reporters in the White House before going to Scotland, he said, “It could be that we have to give Russia secondary sanctions.”
At the beginning of July, the US President increased pressure on Russia to “stop killing” in Ukraine within 50 days, reported politico, adding that he would deposit secondary tariffs of up to 100 percent on nations that are still trading with Russia.
He added that he would do this in his efforts to force the Kremlin to the negotiating table with Ukraine and give Moscow until the beginning of September to answer.
The report added that the Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut brought a bill, which has 85 Senate sponsors to seize secondary tariffs at least 500 percent on imported goods from countries such as China, Brazil and India.
“They are very biting. They are very significant. And they will be very bad for the participating countries,” Trump quoted when he told reporters at the Andrews common base in Maryland.
“For participating countries will be very, very strong and very bad, and I hope we don’t have to pull this string and maybe we won’t, we’ll see,” he said.
Trump’s conversations with Putin:
Trump tried to persuade Russia to end his three-year invasion of Ukraine and even dial Russian President Vladimir Putin and the US-core summits with Russian officials in Istanbul and Riyadh. But his efforts were not so fruitful.
In June, Russia hit Ukraine with 537 drones and missiles in Moscow’s most produced attack, according to the Ukrainian Air Force.
The slow pace of negotiations with Russia began to irritate Trump, and while referring to his conversations with Putin, he said, “It is all talk and no action so far.”
“Actually, Vladimir called me. He said,” I would like to help you with a few agreements “like Iran.” I say, “Vladimir, I just want help with one agreement: Russia.
Trump said he believed that the Russian leader was true to claim that he wanted peace. “I hope yes, we’ll find out soon and it could be 50 days ago,” Trump said.
