US President Donald Trump has announced that the US will send a “top-off-the-line weapon” to Ukraine through NATO countries, while Russia would also threaten with serious tariffs if a deal to end the war has not reached within 50 days.
“We want to ensure that Ukraine can do what he wants to do,” Trump said after a meeting with NATO’s Mark Rute in Washington.
Rutt confirmed that the US had decided to supply a massive supply to what is necessary through NATO “and European people would legs the bill.
Trump said the European countries will send their own Patriot Air Defense System – which depends on the deadly aerial attacks of Ukraine Russia – and then the replacement will be released by the US, said Trump.
Neither Rute nor Trump explained in detail on the weapon that will be sent to Kiev, but Rute said that the deal includes “missiles and chills”.
However, the President said that “the top-of-the-line-weerey” would be “quickly distributed in the battlefield” to support Ukraine.
Rutt said, “If I had been Vladimir Putin today … I reconsider if I should not interact more seriously about Ukraine,” Root said, Trump said.
Ukrainian President Volodimier Zelancesi said on Twitter that he spoke with Trump after his meeting with Rutte, and “thanked him for” the desire and killings to support Ukraine and continue working together to prevent a permanent and peace and establish a permanent and peace.
He said, “We discussed the necessary means and solutions with the President to provide better security for the people of Russian attacks and strengthen their positions. We are ready to work as much as possible to achieve peace,” he said.
On the tariff’s front, Trump said that the US would impose 100% secondary tariffs targets targeting the remaining trade partners of Russia if a peace deal with Ukraine did not reach within 50 days.
This will look at any country that faces trades with Russia if they want to sell their products to America.
For example, if India keeps buying oil from Russia, American companies buying Indian goods will have to import 100%, or tariffs when the products reach the US coasts.
This will make the goods so expensive that American businesses will probably choose to buy them cheaper from elsewhere, resulting in lost revenue for India.
The intention is also to hurt Russia’s economy. Theoretically, if Moscow was unable to generate money by selling oil to other countries, then Ukraine would also have less money to finance its war.
Given that about one third of the revenue of the state of Moscow and more than 60% of its exports, 100% tariffs can create something of Russia’s finance.
Nevertheless, the Moscow Stock Exchange increased rapidly after the announcement, it is likely that investors were expecting Trump – who launched a “major statement” on Russia last week – even to vows to rigorous measures.
However, in detail about both tariffs and NATO weapons deal, Trump on Monday promised new military equipment for Ukraine after returning to the White House for the first time.
Briefing was also notable for the tone killed by the US President, whose rhetoric on Vladimir Putin has become increasingly rigid.
Not for the first time, Trump carried out some responsibility for Russia’s decision to start Ukraine’s entire scale attack in February 2022.
But he mostly appeared disappointed at the lack of progress in ending a struggle, which he once believed that he could be easily resolved.
Asked about his relationship with Putin, Trump said that both of them “speak a lot about completing this, but voiced his displeasure over the fact that” very good phone calls with the Russian President “are often after devastating aerial attacks on Ukraine – which are growing in intensity and frequency.
“Then three or four times you say: The matter does not mean anything,” said Trump.
He said, “I do not want to call him a killer, but he is a difficult man. It has been proved for years, he fooled many people – Clinton, Bush, Obama, Biden,” he said. “She did not fool me. It does not talk about a certain point, it is to take action.”
Earlier this year, there were two rounds of the ceasefire conversation between Russia and Ukraine, but no other meetings have been scheduled so far – Moscow has convicted something on Kiev.
Ukraine’s President Zelancesi is currently hosting the US messenger Keith Kelog in Kive and earlier welcomed a “productive meeting” on Monday – saying that he was “grateful” to Trump for his support.
Kremlin did not immediately comment on the announcement – but the commentary from Moscow appeared to indicate a remedy for trickling relief.
Prof.-Kremalin Pandit and former Putin associate Sergei Markov called the announcement of tariffs “a bluff”, indicating that Trump “had” tried to achieve peace in Ukraine.
Senator Constantin Kosachev argued that “if all this Trump had to say about Ukraine today, so far it has a lot about nothing”.
Kosachev wrote that a lot in 50 days can “turn into the battlefield and the mood of both powers.”
