In a bold statement on Tuesday, former U.S. President Donald Trump suggested he might impose new sanctions on Russia if its leader, Vladimir Putin, does not enter negotiations to halt the war in Ukraine.
While Trump provided no specifics on the prospective sanctions, he underscored a firm stance against Russia, which has already faced significant U.S. penalties following its February 2022 invasion of Ukraine.
Additionally, Trump highlighted his administration's considerations regarding military aid for Ukraine, and he expressed disappointment over what he perceives as a lackluster response from the European Union in supporting the Ukrainian cause.
