As soon as US President Donald Trump assumed power, he started trying to stop the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. He has said that President Vladimir Putin should reach an agreement with Ukraine or else he may face tariffs and sanctions. Donald Trump says that he will soon meet Putin and talk about this issue.
Earlier, he had warned that Putin should end the stupid war in Ukraine otherwise Russia will face higher tariffs. Will have to face more sanctions. Donald Trump, who was sworn in as the 47th President of America on January 20, said this on his owned social media platform Truth Social on Wednesday (January 22, 2025). Speaking to reporters, the President said, ‘I think he (Putin) should compromise.’ When asked if he thought sanctions on Russia would force Putin to negotiate, he said, ‘I don’t know.’
He said, ‘Russia should make a deal.’ Maybe they want to compromise. I think, according to what I have heard, Putin would like to meet me and we will meet as soon as possible. I will meet you immediately. Soldiers are being killed in the battlefield..’
The US President said, ‘No such battlefield has been seen since the Second World War… and I have such pictures which you should not see. Would like. Such numbers of soldiers are being killed every day, which we have not seen in decades. It would be good to end this war. This is a ridiculous war.’
In response to another question, Donald Trump said that Ukraine is ready to compromise. He said, ‘He (Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky) is ready to compromise. He wants to stay. He is a man who has lost a lot of soldiers. Russia also did the same. Russia lost more troops, it lost 8,00,000 troops.’
He also warned that if a ceasefire agreement was not reached soon, they would have the potential to be sold by Russia to the US and other partner countries. There will be no other option except imposing duty, tax and ban on any item.
