Trump: Patience with Putin is running out

U.S. President Donald Trump said Friday in an interview with Fox News that "patience with Putin is running out." He added that patience is "running thin and running out fast." According to Reuters, the president was referring to Russia's war against Ukraine.
“I will not defend anyone,” Trump said at the Fox News studio in New York.
When the program's hosts suggested that Russian leader Vladimir Putin should be blamed for the protracted war in Ukraine, the US president said the source of the problem was "the gigantic hatred between him (Putin) and (Ukrainian President Volodymyr) Zelensky."
He also assessed that "it takes two to tango" and it is difficult to get Zelensky and Putin to take a similar position on ending the war.
"When Putin wanted to do it, Zelensky didn't want to. When Zelensky wanted to do it, Putin didn't want to," Trump said.
When asked what form retaliation against Moscow might take, he said: "We will hit (Russia) very hard with sanctions on banks and oil, and with tariffs. But I've already done that. I've done a lot."
The US president did not clarify what steps he intends to take, or whether he had in mind entirely new sanctions. According to AFP, Trump did not specifically commit to introducing such restrictions.
He also stated: "This is not an easy thing (...). Remember that this is Europe's problem, much more than our problem."

The US president did not explain what steps he actually intended to take and whether he had completely new sanctions in mind. As AFP comments, Trump did not specifically commit to introducing such restrictions.
He also stated: – This is not an easy thing (…). Remember that this is Europe's problem, much more than our problem.

US President Donald Trump said on Friday in an interview with Fox News that "patience with Putin has run out." He added that patience was "wearing thin and running out quickly." As Reuters writes, the president referred in this way to Russia's war against Ukraine.
“I'm not going to defend anyone,” Trump said in the Fox News studios in New York.
When the hosts of the program suggested that Russian leader Vladimir Putin should be blamed for the prolonged war in Ukraine, the US president said that the source of the problem was "the gigantic hatred between him (Putin) and (Ukrainian President Volodymyr) Zelensky."
He also said that "it takes two to tango" and it is difficult to make Zelensky and Putin take a similar position on ending the war.
– When Putin wanted to do it, Zelensky didn't want to. When Zelensky wanted it, Putin didn't want it, Trump said.
When asked what form retaliations against Moscow might take, he said: - We will hit (Russia) very hard with sanctions on banks and oil and tariffs. But I've already done it. I've done a lot.
