US EditionTrump's Ultimatum to Putin: Ceasefire in 50 Days or Else
UKRAINE, JUL 16 – Trump threatens 100% secondary tariffs on Russia and its trading partners if no Ukraine ceasefire is reached in 50 days while approving new weapons shipments via NATO.
- On July 14, 2025, President Donald Trump declared in the Oval Office, alongside NATO's Secretary General Mark Rutte, that the United States would implement full 100% tariffs on Russia if a peace agreement is not reached within 50 days.
- This ultimatum comes after Putin stated during a July 3 phone call that he planned to initiate a fresh ground offensive aimed at increasing territorial control over the following 60 days.
- Trump announced an agreement for the United States to supply more arms to NATO countries, which would then transfer those weapons to Ukraine, while Russia dismissed the ultimatum as unacceptable and called for ongoing diplomatic talks.
- Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov emphasized that Russia would not accept demands framed as ultimatums, while Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov described President Trump's remarks as notably serious.
- The announcement heightened tensions amid the ongoing war since February 2022 and underscores challenges for diplomacy while sanctions aim to cut Russia’s war funding.
