US threatens ‘severe’ tariffs on Russia if no Ukraine deal within 50 days | BBC News


US President Donald Trump says he will introduce "very severe" secondary tariffs of 100% if no ceasefire deal is reached with Ukraine within 50 days.

Trump said he wanted to see the war in Ukraine end, adding that he’s "disappointed" with Russia’s President Vladimir Putin.

He went on to praise the Nato defence alliance, mentioning recent agreements where countries upped their contributions on defence and security-related spending from 2% of a country’s GDP to 5% by 2035.

Speaking to press at the White House during a visit from Nato Secretary General Mark Rutte, Trump also said that the US makes the best equipment, the best missiles and "the best everything" and that they will be sending the weapons to Nato and that "they will be paying for them".
