President Donald Trump Urges NATO Allies to Stop Buying Russian Oil
Donald Trump urges NATO nations to cease Russian oil imports and impose significant tariffs on China to pressure Russia economically and end the Ukraine conflict.
- U.S. President Donald Trump called on NATO and its European allies to implement strong sanctions against Russia and to cease purchasing Russian oil as measures to bring an end to the conflict in Ukraine.
- Trump based his call on frustrations with NATO’s partial commitment and ongoing purchases of Russian oil by some member nations, criticizing past administrations for the conflict.
- He suggested that NATO collectively enforce tariffs between 50% and 100% targeting China to diminish its economic leverage over Russia, with the intention of lifting these tariffs once the conflict concludes.
- Trump highlighted that over 7,100 lives were lost last week, stated his readiness to act once NATO unites, and noted India’s defense of buying Russian crude despite U.S. tariffs.
- His stance implies tougher sanctions depend on NATO consensus and Russia-related oil purchase cessation, while internal disputes persist among allies over energy reliance on Moscow.
