Trump Floats New Tariffs on China, India to Squeeze Russia

The article reports that President Donald Trump has suggested imposing new tariffs on India and China as a way to pressure Russia's President Vladimir Putin to negotiate with Ukraine. Trump has indicated that he would only implement these tariffs if European Union nations also agree to do so. The proposed tariffs are part of Trump's strategy to squeeze Russia economically in response to its invasion of Ukraine. By targeting China and India, two major trading partners of Russia, Trump aims to cut off financial resources that could be used by Putin to fund the war effort. The article suggests that Trump is seeking a coordinated global approach to sanctions and trade measures against Russia, rather than acting unilaterally. The success of this strategy, however, would depend on the willingness of the EU and other key players to join the United States in this economic pressure campaign against Russia.
