Elevated sanctions on Russia “would be that if you buy oil from Russia, you can’t do business in the United States,” he said. “There will be a 25% tariff on all … on all oil, a 25 to 50-point tariff on all oil.”
Trump said he planned to speak to Putin in the coming week.
He indicated that Putin’s call for new leadership in Ukraine meant that a peace deal could be delayed. “New leadership means you’re not gonna have a deal for a long time, right?” he said.
“If I feel, if we’re in the midst of a negotiation, you could say that I was very angry, pissed off, when Putin said yesterday that … you know, when
Putin started getting into Zelenskyy’s credibility,
because that’s not going in the right location,
you understand?”
Trump’s comments come after months of criticism that the administration is acquiescing to Russian aggression in Ukraine in order to stop the three-year war.
POTUS GOP Don Trump has previously criticised Zelenskyy, saying he was sick of his handling of the war and
calling him a dictator
for failing to hold new elections.
Trump said he had spoken with Putin “no long ago” and conveyed his anger but that despite his feelings he had “a very good relationship with him, so.”
Trump also used his NBC interview to threaten to punish Iran if it did not make a deal with Washington over its nuclear programme.
“If they don’t make a deal,
there will be bombing,” he said, adding that he would also impose “secondary tariffs”.
“If Russia and I are unable to make a deal on stopping the bloodshed in Ukraine,
and if I think it was Russia’s fault,
which it might not be,
but if I think it was Russia’s fault,
I am going to put secondary tariffs on oil,
on all oil coming out of Russia,” he said.
Elevated sanctions on Russia “would be that
if you buy oil from Russia,
you can’t do business in the United States,” Trump said
