Trump sets new deadline for Russia on Ukraine war amid sanctions threat
After saying earlier on Monday he would reduce the 50-day window he gave Russia to agree to a peace deal with Ukraine or face severe sanctions, President Donald Trump set a new timeline.
"I'm going to make a new deadline of about 10 or 12 days from today. There's no reason in waiting," the president said while taking questions in a bilateral meeting with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Scotland.
"I want to be generous, but we just don't see any progress being made," Trump added.
Vance heads to Ohio to tout Trump's megabill
Vice President JD Vance will be in Canton, Ohio, on Monday to tout President Donald Trump's sweeping tax and immigration law dubbed by Republicans as the "One, Big Beautiful" bill.
It marks Vance's second trip this month to sell the law filled with Trump's domestic priorities. Vance, in Pennsylvania last week, focused on the bill's tax provisions he said would help working families.
Vance cast the tie-breaking vote to pass the legislation in the Senate. It included some of Trump's key campaign pledges like no tax on tips, extensions of Trump's 2017 tax cuts and increased funds for immigration enforcement. It also cuts Medicaid and food stamps by, with the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimating it 10 million people would lose their health insurance under the law.
Trump says he will reduce 50-day timeline for Russia's Putin to make peace deal
President Donald Trump, greeting British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Scotland, expressed frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin and said he would reduce the 50-day timeline he gave Russia to agree to a peace deal with Ukraine.
"I would have said five times we would have had a deal. I've spoken to President Putin a lot. I always got along with him very well ... We thought we had that settled numerous times. And then President Putin goes out and starts launching rockets into some city like Kyiv and kills a lot of people in a nursing home or whatever, you have bodies lying all over the street," Trump said.
"I'm disappointed in President Putin, very disappointed in him," Trump continued. "So we're going to have to look -- and I'm going to reduce that 50 days that I gave him to a lesser number, because I think I already know the answer what's going to happen."
It was on July 14 that Trump threatened severe tariffs on Russia if there was no ceasefire agreement within 50 days. Trump on Monday didn't say how much he'd reduce the timeline.
