Truce of Russia and Ukraine: Putin did not impress Trump's sanction threats - the Kremlin

The US President threatened Russia with large -scale sanctions if its power has not finished war in Ukraine. The Kremlin does not believe in the seriousness of Donald Trump and mention his first term. US President Donald Trump's threats to impose large -scale sanctions against Russia in case of disagreement with a truce with Ukraine had no effect. The Kremlin did not impress its rhetoric, the Kremlin speaker Dmitry Peskov reported at a briefing on January 23.

"We do not see any special new elements here. Trump loved sanctions and often used them within his first presidential term," Peskov said. In his opinion, Trump likes economic influence methods. Russia, for its part, expresses its readiness for equal and careful dialogue with the United States, this is the scenario that was the first time of Trump. "We are watching all the rhetoric and statements [US authorities] very carefully. We capture all the nuances carefully," the Kremlin speaker added.

Russia is expecting signals to talk from the United States, but they have not yet received, he said. On January 22, the US President really threatened Russia with new sanctions, duties and taxes if its President Vladimir Putin is not over the war in Ukraine. In his emotional address to Putin, Donald Trump emphasized that this war would never have begun if he was President of the United States. There is an easy and difficult way to peace, and the first option will always be better, Trump said.
