‘Sanctions Don’t Bother Him’ Trump Drops BOMBSHELL Over Russia-Ukraine War | Zelenksy Loses War?

President Donald Trump has admitted that new U.S. sanctions on Russia might not have any effect on Vladimir Putin — but is moving ahead with them anyway. Trump slashed the peace window for a Ukraine deal from 50 days to just 10, warning of brutal economic penalties if Moscow doesn't comply. These include up to 100% tariffs and potential secondary sanctions on countries doing business with Russia. While Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov downplayed the threats, saying Russia has developed “sanctions immunity,” Trump’s frustration is mounting. The president also announced that special envoy Steve Witkoff will soon travel to Russia following visits to Israel and Gaza. Trump’s acting UN envoy confirmed a ceasefire deadline: August 8. Despite over 10,000 sanctions already in place since the 2014 Ukraine crisis, Putin maintains the West has failed to break Russia’s economy. The standoff is reaching a boiling point. #Trump #Putin #RussiaSanctions #UkraineWar #USRussiaTensions #100PercentTariffs #CeasefireDeadline #Witkoff #Peskov #TrumpPutinShowdown #UkrainePeaceDeal #SecondarySanctions #EconomicWar #SanctionsFail #TrumpWarning #VladimirPutin #SanctionedNation #RussiaImmunity #TrumpSpeech #USForeignPolicy ~ED.102~HT.408~GR.125~

Trump SLAPS 35% Import Tariff On Canada, Citing Ottawa’s Failure To Curb Fentanyl Flow Into U.S

U.S. President Donald Trump has ignited a global trade storm by raising tariffs on Canadian imports to 35%, accusing Ottawa of failing to curb fentanyl and drug flows into America. Prime Minister Mark Carney defended Canada’s efforts, but Trump claimed negotiations fell short. The new rate—up from 25%—comes amid broader tariffs hitting dozens of countries. Despite the USMCA shielding nearly 90% of Canadian exports, key goods like dairy, wood, and leather may still be taxed. Trump spared Mexico for now but warned that other nations—including Taiwan, India, Laos, and even Switzerland—face harsh levies, some as high as 41%. Critics warn of soaring consumer prices and economic disruption, but the White House insists the tariffs are "rebuilding the greatest economy in history." With global trade talks in limbo and retaliations expected, this marks Trump’s boldest move yet in his battle to reset world commerce. #TrumpTariffs #CanadaTradeWar #USCanadaTensions #35PercentTariff #GlobalTradeCrisis #DrugPolicy #USMCA #TrumpNews #FentanylCrisis #MexicoTrade #IndiaTariff #TaiwanSanctions #Laos40PercentTariff #TradeDeficit #TrumpTradePolicy #MarkCarney #WhiteHouseOrders #EconomicShockwave #TrumpVsWorld #TradeWar2025 ~GR.125~HT.408~

BREAKING: Zelensky DEMANDS ‘Regime Change’ In Russia After Deadly Kyiv Strike Kills 16 Amid Tensions

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged Western allies to seek "regime change" in Russia following a devastating drone and missile strike on Kyiv that killed 16 people, including a six-year-old boy. Over 150 were wounded in one of the most intense attacks in months. The overnight barrage hit a residential tower, causing mass devastation, just as Moscow claimed to have captured Chasiv Yar, a strategic town in eastern Ukraine. While Ukraine denies full Russian control, analysts admit the battle is “very difficult.” The brutal assault came shortly after U.S. President Donald Trump issued a 10-day ultimatum to Russia, threatening further sanctions. As the Kremlin pushes its offensive deeper into Donetsk, Kyiv faces political unrest at home after Zelensky was forced to withdraw a controversial anti-corruption bill under EU pressure. With Russia escalating attacks and Ukraine’s internal crisis deepening, the war enters a volatile new phase. #Zelensky #UkraineWar #KyivAttack #RussiaUkraine #RegimeChange #Putin #ChasivYar #UkraineCrisis #Trump #RussiaSanctions #KyivMissileStrike #EasternUkraine #WarInUkraine #UkrainePolitics #DroneAttack #HelsinkiAccords #RussiaAirstrikes #UkraineNews #AntiCorruption #DonetskRegion ~HT.318~GR.125~
