Donald Trump’s remarks on Ukraine on Monday were far from the biggest announcement the US president could have made.

Sen. Lindsey Graham said "a turning point regarding Russia invasion of Ukraine is coming" amid a bipartisan effort in Congress to impose new economic sanctions on the Kremlin.

Under President Vladimir Putin, Moscow has attempted to expand its influence in the region – with mixed results.

Spokesman says Russia has taken note of President Donald Trump’s statement about military aid supplies to Kiev

Russia has rejected President Trump's "ultimatum" for Moscow to sign a ceasefire deal to end the war in Ukraine within 50 days on Tuesday as "unacceptable," calling for continued negotiations and insisting that the invasion ordered by President Vladimir Putin would continue until its goals are achieved.

US President Donald Trump has criticized Vladimir Putin's attacks on Ukraine, following a major Russian airstrike. Trump indicated potential sanctions and confirmed the US will send Patriot air defense systems to Kyiv.

"At the same time, EU policymakers say that they are preparing the most punitive sanctions package since 2022 – this marks a renewed turn in sentiment, after earlier hesitation to revisit measures such as lowering the price cap on Russian oil (which faced internal vetoes).

Russia's bold statement about US relations stuns diplomats worldwide and the surprising diplomatic tone will completely change everything.

Shares of energy companies fell alongside oil futures as President Trump gave Russia 50 days to comply with demands for a cease-fire. Trump said he would impose tariffs of up to 100% on Russia if the Kremlin doesn't agree to halt hostilities in Ukraine during that time frame.
