During a Cabinet meeting at the White House yesterday, U.S. President Trump addressed the ongoing negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, saying, “We get a lot of bullshit thrown at us by Putin, if you want the truth. He’s always very nice, but it ends up being meaningless.”
Trump also commented on a sanctions bill proposed by Senator Lindsey Graham, which he said he is “looking at.” The bill would impose a 500% tariff on imports from any country that purchases uranium, oil, or natural gas from Russia—a measure that would affect nations such as Brazil, China, India, and Turkey.
