You have 10 or 12 days to end war with Ukraine,’ Trump tells Putin
US President, Donald Trump has issued a new ultimatum to Russian President Vladimir Putin, giving him 10 to 12 days to make progress toward ending the war in Ukraine.
Speaking during meetings in Scotland on Monday, Trump revealed he was abandoning a previous 50-day timeline he had set, citing mounting frustration with Russia’s inaction.
I was going to give them 50 days,” Trump said. “But I’m not happy with the pace. Now I’m telling them they have 10 to 12 days to move forward.”
The president did not detail the consequences if Russia fails to meet the new deadline but emphasized his growing impatience.
“Enough is enough,” he added. “Putin knows where I stand”, Trump said.
Trump’s comments come as diplomatic pressure continues to build on the Kremlin, with Western allies demanding a resolution to the prolonged conflict in Ukraine.
