Donald Trump announced off the cuff that his deadline for Vladimir Putin to reach a ceasefire deal with Ukraine or face consequences is ten days from Tuesday. The president had said on Monday that he would enforce tariffs and sanctions on Russia in “10 or 12 days,” rapidly accelerating the 50-day deadline he’d set earlier this month.

President Donald Trump said he's giving Vladimir Putin 10 to 12 more days to reach a deal to end the Ukraine war. Otherwise, the president said Russia could face new sanctions and secondary tariffs targeting its trading partners.

US President Donald Trump has said he will slash the 50-day deadline he gave for Russia’s Vladimir Putin to reach a ceasefire with Ukraine by weeks, to just “10 or 12 days” from now.

The U.S. president said he is “very disappointed” in Russia’s leader.

As a candidate, Donald Trump promised to end the Ukraine war on his first day in office and swiftly bring the Gaza war to a close as well. Now more than six months into his presidency, peace on both fronts appears further away than ever.
