President Donald Trump said Monday he would punish Russia with tariffs if there isn't a deal to end the war in Ukraine within 50 days.
The Republican president made the announcement during an Oval Office meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
“We’re going to be doing very severe tariffs if we don’t have a deal in 50 days," Trump said. He did not provide specifics on how the tariffs would be implemented.
“I use trade for a lot of things," he added. "But it's great for settling wars.”
