Vladimir Putin should agree to the termination of Ukraine’s fire in days

Donald Trump presented a new, short time for Russia to agree to the cessation of the fire with regard to the war in Ukraine for ten or 12 days from Monday.

The US President said there was no “reason” to wait more as there was no progress to peace.

Two weeks ago, Trump said President Vladimir Putin had 50 days In order to end the war or Russia will face heavy tariffs.

When speaking at a press conference in Scotland, Trump said he would confirm the new deadline on Monday or Tuesday, but repeated the threat of imposing sanctions and secondary tariffs in Moscow.

Earlier in July, he said that these would amount to a 100% tax imposed on any country that trades with Russia.

This would make the goods so expensive that US enterprises would probably choose to buy them more expensive from other places, leading to lost revenue for both Russia and the country that trades with it.

Speaking after a meeting with the United Kingdom Prime Minister Kyar Starmer in Scotland, Trump again expressed his disapproval of Putin’s actions in Ukraine, where the war raged at three and a half years in the full -scale invasion of Russia.

As he refused to say if he thought Putin was “lying”, Trump pointed out the contrast between the rhetoric of the Russian president during their conversations one of one and the rockets “lobby” of Ukrainian cities on an almost low basis.

“We would have stopped the fire and maybe peace … And suddenly you have rockets flying in Kiev and other places,” Trump complained, adding that he thought the negotiations would be possible, but that now it is “very late in the process.”

“I say, forget it. I will not talk anymore. It happened too many cases and I don’t like it,” he said, although he also insisted that he and Putin always got along very well.

Trump also said that he “is no longer interested in conversations” – a line that instantly flashes in the big Russian media.

Putin has never commented on the time frame. When the initial 50 -day period was first announced, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov just described it as “very serious”, but added that Moscow needed time to analyze it.

Referring to the latest developments on Monday afternoon, Russian MP Andrei Guruliov said that Trump’s ultimatums “no longer work … Not on the front line, not in Moscow” and that Russia has the power of its “weapons, principles and will”.

When Trump first mentioned the cut of the deadline, the Ukrainian presidential head of staff Andry Jermak praised him for “handing over a clear message of peace by force” and added that Putin “respects only power”.

In recent months, Russia has increased its attacks on Ukraine by launching swarms of drones and rockets in cities as it pressed its summer offensive in the eastern part of the country.

Three rounds of negotiations to end the fire between Russia and Ukraine, hosted by Turkey, have led to an exchange of thousands of prisoners of war – but no real progress has been made to agree to end the fire.

After three and a half years of bloody conflict, it is unclear how the two countries could reach an agreement to stop fighting within 12 days.

All the prerequisites of Russia for peace – including Ukraine, becoming a neutral country, drastically reducing their military and abandoning their aspirations to NATO – are unacceptable to Kiev and its Western partners.

In the round of conversations in the last week, lasted only an hour, Peskov said that a “breakthrough” in the negotiations is “hardly possible.”
