U.S. President Donald Trump toughened his stance on Russia this week, pledging to supply Kyiv with “top-of-the-line” military equipment to be paid for by Washington’s NATO allies.
On July 14, he also threatened to slap tariffs of up to 100 percent on countries that continue to trade with Russia—especially those buying its oil—if Moscow fails to agree to a cease-fire with Ukraine within the next 50 days.
