WASHINGTON, July 15 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump appeared to be losing patience with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin, expressing frustration on Monday just hours after threatening to impose "harsh tariffs" on Russia.
"I'm disappointed in him, but I'm not done with him. But I'm disappointed in him," Trump said in an interview with the BBC.
Hours earlier, during a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in the Oval Office, the US president warned that the US would impose very tough tariffs if a ceasefire agreement in Ukraine was not reached within 50 days.
US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick later clarified that Trump actually meant “economic sanctions” when he threatened “secondary tariffs” against Russia, The Washington Times reports.
After a telephone conversation with D. Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed gratitude to the US President on the X social network for his “willingness to support Ukraine” and welcomed their strong relations. –0–
