  • President Trump threatens 100% secondary tariffs on Russia's trading partners unless there is a ceasefire in the war in Ukraine in 50 days

    President Trump threatens 100% secondary tariffs on Russia's trading partners unless there is a ceasefire in the war in Ukraine in 50 days
    Jul 14 2025
    President Trump is upping the ante with Russia to end its war with Ukraine. He made two announcements today: First--100 percent tariffs on any country that trades with Russia, unless a cease-fire is reached within in 50 days. And second---a deal with NATO members to send weapons to Ukraine. This comes as a bipartisan Senate bill that puts sanctions on Moscow that its two lead sponsors say could be the sledgehammer the president needs to end the conflict. Also in the Senate, Republicans are focused on their bill to take back more than 9 billion dollars in federal funds--including for public broadcasting and foreign aid. This is the same bill House Republicans passed last month and the Senate has until Friday to approve it. But it's facing opposition from handful of Republicans and all Senate Democrats, who say any rescissions would hurt future bipartisan government funding talks. Learn more about your ad choices.
