U.S. President Donald Trump said he plans to speak with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin tomorrow to discuss ending the war in Ukraine, U.S. media reported. "We worked hard over the weekend," Trump told reporters on Air Force One during an overnight flight back from Florida to the Washington area. "We want to see if we can end this war. Maybe we can, maybe we can't, but I think we have a very good chance," the tycoon added.
“With Putin on Tuesday, we’ll talk about land. We’ll talk about power plants,” Trump said when asked about the concessions. “I think we’ve already discussed a lot of that on both sides, Ukraine and Russia. We’re already talking about it, dividing up some assets. We’ll see if we have anything to announce, maybe by Tuesday .”
President Trump then said he had “no intention” of easing tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. Instead, he reiterated his promise to impose reciprocal tariffs as early as April 2 to address trade practices Washington deems unfair , raising the possibility that more products and trading partners will be targeted. “Billions of dollars have already come into our country, and the biggest money will come on April 2.”
Since January, Trump has imposed tariffs on several trading partners and goods, including steel and aluminum, roiling financial markets and stoking fears that his plans could plunge the world's largest economy into recession .
