President Trump has turned up the heat on NATO allies, saying he is ready to impose major sanctions on Russia, but only if all NATO members act together and stop buying Russian oil.

In a recent Truth Social post, Trump criticized NATO saying “NATO’S commitment to WIN has been far less than 100%, and the purchase of Russian Oil, by some, has been shocking”. He said it significantly weakens their negotiating power with Russia.

Trump Proposes Tariffs on China

Trump also proposed that NATO, as a group, should place 50–100% tariffs on China, to be lifted once the Russia-Ukraine war ends. He claims that this move would pressure China to break its grip on Russia and help bring the conflict to a close.
