Trump gives Putin new ‘10 or 12 days’ deadline to end war in Ukraine – POLITICO
· POLITICOTURNBERRY, Scotland — Donald Trump said Monday that Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin has less than two weeks to bring an end to his war in Ukraine before the U.S. president hits Russia and its trading partners with up to 100 percent tariffs.
“A new deadline of about 10 or 12 days from today,” Trump said. “There’s no reason waiting […] I want to be generous, but we just don’t see any progress being made,” he added during remarks to the media after a bilateral meeting with U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer at Turnberry in Scotland.
“I’m disappointed in President Putin, very disappointed at him, so we’re gonna have to look, and I’m gonna reduce that 50 days that I gave him to a lesser number, because I think I already know the answer,” Trump told reporters prior to the Starmer meeting. Trump said he would announce the change “probably tonight or tomorrow.”
