If they haven’t figured it out after 1600 sanctions and 3 years, it feels like the sanction well is pretty dry.

I’m very interested in seeing what he is referring to that the US is still trading with Russia. Clouds and bad weather?

Wow, I wish someone had thought of sanctions sooner! Oh wait..

This would only work if Putin was a man who cared about Russia’s citizens, the economy and their lives. We damn well know he only cares about staying in power and appearing in good light. This is at best a statement on foreign affairs.

This is his **Big Plan** to end the war!

Aren’t there already sanctions on Russia, and what more could be added on top? Also, why would we take him serious? He seems to suggest he’d do anything any reporter asks him hypothetically.

Trump tweeted he wanted to help Putin and restore Russia if we pledged to work on Peace. So he’s back and forth, you can’t trust either Trump or Putin

US never had a big trade with Russia even before the war.
Showmanship is better than nothing, but this threat is nothing significant.

Trumps big solution to ending the Ukraine war in 1 day was…….sanctions? Russia is already the most sanctioned nation on the planet. Though trumps plan to ramp up us oil production might actually be more painful to Russia than any sanctions.

Suddenly r/europe no longer believes in sanctions. Some people are fickle.

“Stop or I will sanction you”
“You already sanction us”
“Exactly, so stop”

So Just keep doing what Hes doing?

Anybody know what meaningful sanctions there are left to impose?
I think Trump mistakingly thought the biggest obstacle to peace was Ukraine wanting to liberate all its lands only to discover Putin was the one most against a ceasefire.
Given that Trump doesn’t like the idea of sending more aid to Ukraine to help them defeat the Russians, he is turning to sanctions. But I’m sceptical there is anything meaningful left to sanction…

Is he Putins puppet or no guys? This is a sign he is going to keep supporting ukraine which is a positive for now

Ukraine war ends when Ukraine gets all its land back and paid back in full by those orcs

Trump will make their eggs cheaper too?

Where was the “new” part here? That’s what Biden’s been doing the whole time, tightening sanctions.

In other words, he does nothing.

Empty threats.
Aka bluster.

I mean, how is that different from what we were collectively doing for past 3 years?
What else we can sanction?

Trump gave Putin a covid testing machine while Americans were struggling and dying.

This is the message he’s says in public, at some point the sanctions will be lifted because it’s the neighborly thing to do.
He’s just trying to appear strong and not owned by Putin.

Oh, surely we will end the war. As soon as we reach the border with Moldova and Poland.

🤣 the concept of a plan

What a new and creative concept. Why didn’t anybody think of sanctions before Orange Man?

You mean tariffs right?

That’s a weak move, Cotton. Let’s see how it plays out
Russia will only respond to credible threat of force. Sanctions have not deterred Putin so far. I wouldn’t expect that to change now
