U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that he will impose strict new economic consequences against Russia if Moscow does not accept a peace deal with Ukraine within the next 50 days.

“I’m disappointed in [Russian President Vladimir Putin], because I thought we would have had a deal two months ago, but it doesn’t seem to get there,” Trump said as he hosted NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte at the White House on July 14.
