Russia's former president cautioned that Trump’s announcement Monday that Russia must end the conflict with Ukraine in 10 to 12 days would not end well for the U.S.

If his latest remarks are anything to go by, President Donald Trump’s loss of patience with the Kremlin appears to be gathering pace.

At a press conference with UK PM Keir Starmer, Trump set a new deadline for additional tariffs on Russia. Earlier this month, Trump gave the Kremlin 50 days to reach a deal with Ukraine for a ceasefire. Today, he said Putin now has "10 or 12 days" before secondary levies are put in place

The Kremlin said on Tuesday that it had "taken note" of a statement by U.S. President Donald Trump that he was shortening his deadline for Moscow to sign up to a ceasefire in Ukraine or face sanctions.

During his visit to the U.K. on Monday, President Donald Trump expressed further frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

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.

U.S. tariff agreement sealed over the weekend has been described as a “dark day” for Europe and even a capitulation to American demands.
