Russia has responded to the United States President, Donald Trump’s warning that he will impose tariffs and sanctions if Moscow does not “make a deal” soon and end the war with Ukraine.
Trump had said he would be forced to put “high levels of Taxes, Tariffs, and Sanctions” on anything sold by Russia if Putin refused to negotiate an end to his war in Ukraine.
However, Dmitry Peskov, Kremlin spokesman, also responded to Trump’s threat of sanctions and tariffs.
“We do not see any particularly new elements here. He likes these methods, at least he liked them during his first presidency,” he told reporters.
Russia insisted that it saw nothing particularly new in Trump’s threat of sanctions.
Peskov maintained that Moscow was ready for an equal and mutually respectful dialogue with the US.
Meanwhile, Russia’s Deputy United Nations Ambassador, Dmitry Polyanskiy, who also spoke on the matter on Thursday, told Reuters that it depends on what a “deal” means.

America has lost his credibility in the world. Trump is just making unnecessary noise that he will sanction Russia if he doesn’t come to the negotiating table. That’s ridiculous to hear Trup saying that when Russia economy has survived series of sanctions from the west. What else can the west do. Despite US sanctions, Russia economy is ranked third in the world. It appears that Trump does not know the state of US defence capabilities despite trillions of dollars spent. Russia, China, Iran and North Korea have taken the lead in defence capabilities.
