Thursday, January 23, 2025 - US President, Donald Trump has warned his Russian president Vladimir Putin to end the war in Ukraine quickly, or else face “high levels of taxes, tariffs and sanctions.”
Trump took to Truth Social on Wednesday to warn Moscow that things would
only get worse if the war doesn’t end soon.
“Settle now and STOP this ridiculous War! IT’S ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE,”
Trump urged.
“If we don’t make a ‘deal,’ and soon, I have no other choice but to put
high levels of Taxes, Tariffs, and Sanctions on anything being sold by Russia
to the United States, and various other participating countries,” he wrote.
“Let’s get this war, which never would have started if I were President,
over with! We can do it the easy way, or the hard way and the easy way is
always better,” he added. “It’s time to “MAKE A DEAL.” NO MORE LIVES SHOULD BE
LOST!!!”
The returning president vowed to end the war, which has been raging for
nearly three years, within the first days of his administration.
He’s said he would be willing to meet with Putin and Ukrainian President
Volodymyr Zelensky to work out a deal.
“I’m not looking to hurt Russia. I love the Russian people and always
had a very good relationship with President Putin and this despite the Radical
Left’s Russia, Russia, Russia HOAX. We must never forget that Russia helped us
win the Second World War, losing almost 60,000,000 lives in the process,” Trump
added in his post.
Trump also said Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky has told him that
he wants to “make a deal” to end the war.
“Zelensky wants to make a deal. I don’t know if Putin does.... He should
make a deal. I think he’s destroying Russia by not making a deal,” he said.
The post comes a day after Trump criticized Putin for continuing the war
effort despite reports that more than 700,000 Russians have been killed or
wounded in the fighting, which has also caused Russia’s economy to plummet with
inflation edging towards 10%.
“He can’t be thrilled,” Trump said. “He’s not doing so well. I mean,
he’s grinding it out … it’s not making him look very good.”
“I think he’s destroying Russia by not making a deal,” he
added.
