Ukrainians Welcome US Aid but See Trump’s 50-Day Ultimatum to Putin as Too Long
KYIV CITY MUNICIPALITY, KYIV CITY REGION, JUL 14 – Trump threatens 100% secondary tariffs on Russia if no ceasefire is reached in 50 days and pledges more U.S.-made weapons to support Ukraine's defense, amid intense Russian offensives.
- On Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump announced from the Oval Office a 50-day postponement before implementing strict sanctions on Russia and committed to increasing military support for Ukraine.
- This announcement followed Russia's intensified military push along a 1,000-kilometer front, with drones and missiles hitting Ukrainian cities harder than in the past three years.
- Ukrainians welcomed the arms pledge, including Patriot missile systems, but many remained skeptical, with Kyiv resident Oles Oliinyk calling the 50-day period too long and doubting it would change much.
- A Ukrainian army officer in Kharkiv described the delay as "a very long time" but noted the importance of the American readiness to supply needed weapons, while European leaders saw the delay as a signal to prepare.
- Boris Pistorius, Germany's defense minister, commented that it is uncertain whether the announcement signals a reversal, but he emphasized that the shift in tone and the threat of sanctions following 50 days represent meaningful progress despite ongoing uncertainty.
