The Kremlin said on Thursday that it was analyzing recent statements by US President Donald Trump regarding possible secondary tariffs against buyers of Russian exports. The remarks were made in response to questions about Trump’s threat to impose 100% tariffs unless a peace deal over Ukraine is reached within 50 days.

Donald Trump announced that the US will send weapons to Ukraine. The weapons include missiles and air defense systems. NATO supports this move for peace. Russia warned that its nuclear policy is active.

It has to happen earlier,” Braže said. She welcomed Trump’s announcement that the U.S. would send weapons to Ukraine and impose secondary tariffs of up to 100% on countries still trading with Russia if Moscow fails to agree to a peace deal within 50 days.

The authorities of Russia are using traditional information narratives and nuclear threats in an attempt to drive a wedge between the US, Ukraine, and NATO, according to a report by the US-based Institute for the Study of War (ISW).

Kremlin officials have rejected US President Donald Trump's demand to reach a peace deal on Ukraine within 50 days. Moscow has stressed that it will continue to "pursue its war aims" despite international pressure and economic sanctions.

ISW analysts pointed to remarks made the same day by Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov, who told state-run news agency TASS that Moscow views any “demands,” especially ultimatums, as “unacceptable.

The Kremlin said on Friday that Russia closely follows all of Donald Trump's statements after the U.S. president said he was "very disappointed" with his latest conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin about the war in Ukraine.
