President Donald Trump announced on Monday that the United States would impose 100 percent tariffs on Russia in 50 days if it did not reach a deal to end the war in Ukraine.
The president’s threat comes as he has grown frustrated with Russian President Vladimir Putin for failing to seriously come to the table as he pushes for a peace agreement.
“We’ve very, very unhappy with them, and we’re going to be doing very severe tariffs if we don’t have a deal in 50 days,” Trump said. “Tariffs at about 100 percent. You can call them secondary tariffs.”
